Wood-boring pests from around the world have historically entered the U.S. through wood packaging materials used in trade, causing billions of dollars of damage to forests. Recognizing the importance of safeguarding international trade against wood-boring insects, the International Plant Protection Convention established the International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures No. 15 (ISPM 15). Its main objective is to minimize the chances of wood-boring pests hitching rides in wood packaging material (WPM) used in global trade. NRS scientists are studying the effectiveness of these standards.
