#stop movement of coconut rhinoceros beetle
Hawaiʻi County issues 3-month voluntary compliance order for coconut rhinoceros beetle host materials
The order — effective July 1 through Sept. 30 — applies to parts of West Hawaiʻi where the invasive beetle has been detected in the past 6 months on Hawaiʻi Island. Residents and business operators in this area are asked not to transport materials that can host the invasive insects and their larvae in an effort to thwart their spread.
