In international trade, wood is widely used as packaging material. At present, it cannot be completely replaced by other packaging materials. After my country joins the WTO, under diversified free trade, it is expected that the number of wooden packaging materials used in imported and exported goods will continue to increase. In order to respond to the spread of quarantine pests as wood packaging materials spread internationally, our country should actively collect relevant information from various channels. In addition to cooperating with the ISPM 15 guidelines to formulate and implement import and export quarantine measures that comply with international standards, we should also conduct Relevant risk assessments to thoroughly understand the impact of suspected quarantine pests; for example, if the longhorn beetle is introduced into China, it may not only seriously harm the forests and economic plants in Taiwan's vast area, but also the environment and ecology of the entire country. Analyze the disasters caused by our country's biodiversity, the increase in production costs, and the social losses that may cause unemployment or work stoppages, etc. We should carefully conduct risk assessments to face them. Various problems caused by quarantine pests. APHIS (2003) has analyzed the regulatory impact of implementing ISPM15 regulations, which is valuable for our country's reference. In addition to strictly enforcing quarantine measures, we should strengthen detection and monitoring of channels through which wood pests of quarantine importance may invade, and improve relevant network systems. For species that are difficult to identify, relevant rapid diagnostic and identification methods should be developed, and frontline quarantine and quarantine personnel should be trained to identify these harmful organisms.
