Those hopping cricket/spider looking things arrived in this country a similar way. I can't remember the exact story but I do remember reading about them 20 or more years ago.
We need to quit importing goods and focus more on exporting goods. Importing goods has ruined jobs in this country which in turn has helped ruin the economy. Not only do we have foreign insects, reptiles and animals taking over this country we are also invested with illegal aliens which is the downfall of this country. Sharia Law is next. Wake up sheeple.
