Strange packages from China are once again showing up at homes across Texas. People are finding them on their doorsteps without ordering anything. The parcels contain unknown seeds and small bottles filled with liquid.
The situation has alarmed residents and officials. Authorities say these items could be dangerous if touched or handled the wrong way. They could harm people, crops, animals, or the environment.
Some of the packages were labelled as “wire conductor.” Officials say this description makes no sense and appears misleading. The recipients said they do not recognize the sender and never placed an order.
Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller issued a clear warning. He urged people to take the issue seriously. He said any unknown liquid or chemical delivered to a home can put families at risk.
The Texas Department of Agriculture recently investigated one such package delivered to a home in Clute, Texas. The parcel came from China. Inside were unidentified seeds and a small vial of liquid. The homeowner said they had no idea why it was sent.
Officials say unknown seeds can carry plant diseases or invasive species. These can damage crops, native plants, and even livestock. The liquids could also be harmful or toxic.
This is not a new problem. Since February 2025, the Texas Department of Agriculture has collected seed packages from 109 locations across the state. In total, more than 1,100 packets of unwanted seeds have been recovered.
State officials are now working with other agencies to test and analyze the materials. They are asking residents to report any similar packages right away.
People are being told not to open the parcels. They should not plant the seeds. They should not throw them away on their own.
Officials say Texas cannot allow unidentified seeds or chemicals to spread unchecked. They are treating the situation as a serious threat.
The reason behind these mysterious deliveries is still unknown. Investigators are trying to find out who is sending them and why. Until then, authorities are asking Texans to stay alert and be cautious.
