Idaho works to prevent spread of invasive mussels

The Idaho State Department of Agriculture has a new proactive boat-inspection program on major highways along the state's borders to prevent quagga and zebra mussels from "hitchhiking" into Idaho's waters. The idea is to Clean, Dry and Drain boats from waters infested with the non-native mussels to prevent spreading them to other states and pristine watersheds.

Typical governmental bullshit. Boats come to my marina from the East coast regularly on boat hauler rigs, we have tried and tried to get them to come and inspect the boats, they arent interested, they even say we should do it, lol....what a joke
