Alabama has swam traps located all around the port area of Mobile.  Granted, that doesn't guarantee the capture of all the swarms that may hitchhike into the Mobile area on ships and containers, but a concerted effort is made to capture all the swarms in the area around the bay.  I can't mention the number of traps set out, but they do number more than one hundred.  We'll get invaded eventually, but we're doing the best we can to head such an invasion off as long as possible.
