 USDA (2021) Between August 2020 and April 2021, a nursery in Canada shipped boxwood (Buxus species) that may have been infested with box tree moth to locations in six states—25 retail facilities in Connecticut, Massachusetts, Michigan, New York, Ohio, and South Carolina—and a distribution center in Tennessee. On May 26 2021, the pest has been identified in three facilities in Michigan, one in Connecticut, and one in South Carolina, and APHIS is working with state plant regulatory officials to determine whether other facilities may be impacted.
2023: quarantine area established: prohibition of interstate movement of regulated articles of Buxus spp. from the entire counties of Lenawee and Washtenaw, and parts of the county of Monroe and Jackson.
