    we are just missing the plague of locusts that africa and ME has. ours went extinct apparently, because we destroyed thier habitat.

      Agreed. Different environments, different “plagues”. I’ve never seen grasshoppers hit that threshold where they go locust mode, but I’ve seen Anabrus simplex (Mormon crickets) so thick they turn modern highways into slip’n’slides.
