Definitely the burms are a permanent part of the Florida ecosystem-but I'm sure the federal and state government will waste millions (that would be far better spent on combatting invasives that cause far more damage, like fire ants) in a vain attempt to eliminate them.

I also agree they won't spread beyond Okeechobee-Orlando at the absolute most...
