Oh heck, we can do better than that here in Michigan Truman.  Michigan 
winters kill it dead.  Along with the fireants, ticks, african bees and other 
various malignant-sounding pests I've heard of but never seen.  (Except when 
visiting "down south.")
We do have the accidentally introduced Zebra mussle that is wreaking havoc in 
the Great Lakes, but they don't really seem to bother the horses much.

 that it doesn't seem to grow very well in Florida. If the GA DNR wasn't out
 with blow tourches keeping it at bay it would have covered over the state 15
 years ago. But down here in FL it doesn't seem to do well. Granted we have a
 bit of it and there may be pockets were it does well - but as a whole our
 climate and soil ( or should I say sand ) is not all that friendly to Kudzu.
