More than 150 illegal migrant sexual predators have been nabbed in Florida as part of a massive sweep dubbed “Operation Dirtbag,” Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem revealed on Wednesday.

The sex offenders were among more than 230 illegals rounded up in the Sunshine State after being wanted for crimes including drug offenses and even murder.

Others who were arrested had prior convictions for child molestation and sexual assault, according to the Department of Homeland Security.

“This operation was called Operation Criminal Return. I call it Operation Dirtbag, because these individuals were sex offenders, but not just sex offenders, they targeted children,” Noem told “Fox & Friends.”

“These 150 individuals will be gone off of our streets. Our kids will be safer.”
