I would think Young Brothers and Matson will spread
the fire ant first, if they haven't already done so.

But the numbers don't go with Young Borthers... The
Super Ferry will probably handle many times the cars
than both of them and Ferry doesn't even plan to have
agricultural inspectors like Young Brothers, and we all
who have used Matson know that they insisted that the
cars be cleared of all contents in the car. They don't
want to transport any fruit flies to the mainland
inadvertantly. The ferry cars will be packed with
whatever their passengers want to transport to another
island. Remember the cars that were found on Maui full
with imu stones?
