By: Tess Maune The United States Department of Agriculture has issued a hay quarantine for 21 counties due to imported fire ants. The OSU Extension Office said the USDA is having to regulate the transport of hay in many parts of the state due to imported fire ants in the hay. The counties include Pittsburg, Leflore, McCurtain, Pushmataha, Choctaw, Bryan, Atoka, Coal, Pontotoc, Johnston, Marshall, Murray, Garvin, Carter, Love, Stephens, Jefferson, Comanche, Cotton, Tillman and Jackson.     The USDA’s quarantine ordered said hay grown in those areas can only be sold under set limits by the USDA. OSU said fire ant nests can house as many as 200,000 ants, they re invasive and getting rid of them is a long, hard process.
