The emergency quarantine restricts movement of all regulated articles outside of the emergency quarantine zone until the emergency quarantine is lifted. Residents living within the emergency quarantine area must self-inspect any regulated articles. The following is a list of examples of items that should be inspected:
- Lawn and garden equipment
- Outdoor household and patio items
- Recreational vehicles (RVs, campers, ATVs, etc.)
Trees may be pruned but all branches, woodchips and other woody material must stay on the property. Tree bark and branches have the highest risk of having egg masses attached. The emergency quarantine also requires that all outdoor household products, such as patio furniture, trucks, campers, or pallets be inspected to assure the article is free of spongy moth life stages before moving them out of the emergency quarantine zone.
