Stumbled across this while looking for something else. Maybe all imported furniture should also be inspected at APHIS (USDA Animal & Plant Health Inspection Service)
>From the Florida Dept of Ag. web site:
Dinoderus minutus Fabricius, a bostrichid beetle: A severe infestation was found in bamboo curtain rods purchased from a store in Pompano Beach. The curtain rods originated in China. Beetles infested the house, including hardwood floors at the house in Bradenton (Manatee County; E2002-3031; L. Wayne Clifton, Albert L. Wright, and Karen Lea Etchells; 3 July 2002). This is an exotic beetle (Dr. Michael C. Thomas).
Beetles were found in furniture purchased from an import store in Debary (Volusia County; E2002-3365; Barbara Bielawski, homeowner; 24 July 2002).
