Locusts

Locusts : These pets are really large grasshoppers, and do immense damage to crops on the ground when they gather in large swarms.It i even worse when they grow wings after 40 days as "hoppers",and fly in huge numbers searching for food.One East African swarm covered an area of 250 square miles!Scientists have studied the behavior of locusts, and have found that it is best to exterminate them at the "hopping" stage with poison on the ground.They are sprayed with poison from aircraft, and attacked with flame-throwers.What do you think of this type of locusts control.
