The director shall print a copy of the proclamation in one or
more papers of general circulation in the infested district.
Every plant within a citrus white fly district which is
infested with citrus white fly or with the eggs, larvae, or pupae of
the citrus white fly, or which there is reasonable cause to believe
may be infested with citrus white fly, is a public nuisance.
The existence of any known host plant of citrus white fly
within the boundaries of the district is reasonable cause to believe
the host plant is infested with the citrus white fly.
The department and the commissioners may cause the
destruction of any host plant of the citrus white fly in a summary
manner.
If, in the opinion of the enforcing officer, the host plant
may be treated in a manner to destroy all citrus white flies or the
eggs, larvae, or pupae of the citrus white fly which are or may be on
the plant, the officer may in a summary manner cause such treatment
to be given.
