    Well... Those tropical 2 leggers can adapt pretty fast to cold and are prolific breeders. See holyoke or lynn massa2shyts.

    I couldn't do the cold. I was one of those two legged tropical Invaders but a few good cold winters ran me out lol. @pmdriver might be on to something there.

    Warning not political opinion ​


    Maybe our government should invest a lot of money into microbots and have attack these bugs. They can be built to be environmentally friendly by using biodegradable materials. Just dump a few billion in an effected area, have them programmed to target these things through DNA and destroy them.


    Remember robots rule!​

    Funny how they don’t seem to care about all the 3rd worlders illegally coming here and turning my homeland to ####.

    Why should I care about some bugs?
     
    7-UP, Dale thompson, tscottme and 3 others Thank this.

    Do they really think that drivers are going to inspect their tractors and trailers for eggs? I bet they've already spread outside of PA to the West.
