We've rather stringent quarantine laws I admit. Not just for stuff coming into the country but stuff moving from state to state (we've got dogs at domestic airports that sniff for contraband fruit rather than drugs)
We've had problems with the past with pests from abroad, both inadvertently and deliberately introduced (not with the best of results) so we're a bit more paranoid than some.
