So Long, Pink Bollworm.

The USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service created pink bollworm regulations in 1955, which were used in 10 states at the height of the program. States included Arizona, Arkansas, California, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, New Mexico, Nevada, Oklahoma and Texas. The states were quarantined for the pest, but by 2003 only Arizona, California, New Mexico and Texas remained subject to the regulations.
