Actually, that's the big fear in Hawaii. Guam lost almost all its avifauna to the brown tree snake, which is native to Guadalcanal. The snakes probably arrived in the wheel wells of military aircraft from the Solomon Islands.
Hawaii, so I have read, has fences to place around arriving aircraft from certain places, until they can be inspected for snakes.
