Invasive species found at Lexington pet store

Zebra mussels have been found in packaged moss balls for sale at pet stores across NC The Dispatch Aquatic moss balls containing invasive zebra mussels have been found in stores across North Carolina, including in Lexington, according to the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission and a local PetSmart store manager. If introduced to a water system, zebra mussels can quickly take over the environment, according to the information provided by the state agency. They disrupt the food chain, change the water chemistry, close water intake and delivery systems and have the potential to cause extensive ecological damage. Aquatic moss balls available for purchase at PetSmart on Lowes Boulevard had the zebra mussels inside, said Carlos Sanchez, the manager at PetSmart.

This is an infection caused by exposure to salmonella bacteria, which avian experts say has been exacerbated by birds crowding at domestic bird feeders and birdbaths. Recent harsh winter weather in Texas may have led to more hungry migratory searching for food elsewhere.
