In this Fun Fact from the frontline, we’ve got fruit that was undeclared, detected, and destroyed.
In Wellington, Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) Detector Dog Fritz indicated on a passenger in the express lane who was found with undeclared dried fruit in a milk container. A great example of our biosecurity system working well.
The passenger was infringed, and the fruit destroyed.
Exotic fruit flies – and their larvae – are one of the greatest biosecurity threats to the kiwifruit industry. Read more about how we are reducing their risk on our website here.
