Lots of campers bring fire wood from home. If you load up the back of your truck with wood and transport it several hundred miles on your vacation you not only transport the wood but potentially any unwelcome guests that may be hiding in it. Here in Wisconsin it is illegal to transport fire wood more than fifty miles for that reason , but many folks do it anyways.

Many if not all NE states ban bringing wood in from one county to another but it's mostly self administered. I suspect if some keep ignoring the regulations, other states will take a lesson from MA and just ban ALL wood not purchased at the campground.
