Steps

  1. Go to the plant-pests-diseases section of aphis.usda.gov, which hosts interactive federal quarantine boundary viewers for specific pests (e.g., Asian longhorned beetle, box tree moth, citrus pests).
  2. Select the pest-specific viewer relevant to the job — each major regulated pest has its own dedicated boundary map/tool rather than a single universal quarantine map.
  3. Cross-reference the federal quarantine boundary with any state-level quarantine map, since states can impose additional or differently-drawn quarantine zones on top of the federal boundary.
  4. For pests without a dedicated federal viewer, contact the state's APHIS State Plant Health Director for current boundary and permitting information.
  5. Document the boundary check (date and source) before moving regulated material, since these maps are updated periodically as infestations spread or are contained.
