Invasion of the U.S. by killer bees began when they spread up from Mexico into the first state to be affected, Texas. Killer bees arrived at the southern tip of Texas, in the city of Hidalgo. Because of their more intense defensive swarming behavior, these non-native bees earned the name "killer bee" in the media. Arizona was the second state to be invaded, less than three years after the invasion began in Texas. Since the 1950s, the bees had extended their range northward through Central America. Their original source was from cross-breeding with tropical African bees imported into Brazil for experimental work.
