The detection of three Asian citrus psyllids on the border of Tulare and Fresno Counties has prompted California agriculture officials to quarantine approximately 30-square miles in Fresno County. Fresno had not previously been on the list of counties quarantined in part or in full. A quarantine is in effect for all of Tulare County. The psyllids were found in a trap in the unincorporated area between the City of Dinuba and Delft Colony.
The quarantine area in Fresno County is bordered on the north by E Lincoln Avenue; on the south by the Fresno County Boundary Line; on the west by E Manning Avenue; and on the east by the Fresno County Boundary Line. The quarantine map is available online at www.cdfa.ca.gov/plant/go/acp-qmaps.
