Plague of the locust







I have NEVER in my life seen the infectation of grasshoppers like we have this year. It is unreal. You walk through the yard and they are jumping all around you. This is what it has looked like everyday for the last two months. The house and building are covered with them. You crunch as you walk along the sidewalk.
Unfornately along with the grasshoppers we are starting to see blister beetles. Blister beetles eat grasshoppers. A good hard freeze would help with all of this.
