Summary

Grape plants sold at Costco in California may be carrying the glassy-winged sharpshooter, a deadly insect threatening vineyards, almonds, and citrus. Found in San Joaquin County, the issue stems from a Fresno nursery—not Costco. Your food is safe, but if you bought plants between April 19–May 19 from Stockton or Lodi locations, contact your county agricultural commissioner. Isolate plants, don’t plant or compost them—bag tightly and wait for inspection. California’s agriculture teams are on it with traps, treatments, and inspections to stop the spread.
