Crickets do not fly, but move by running or jumping, covering roads and fields with a continuous “carpet“. These insects do not bite, but they eat grass, bushes, plantings, other insects, and even their relatives. Hundreds of crushed crickets make the region’s roads slippery and can cause accidents. In addition, they stick to houses: local residents have to get rid of them with vacuum cleaners, hoses with strong water pressure and chemicals. People install plastic fences around their plots, as crickets cannot climb smooth surfaces. Biologists note that the cause of the cricket invasion is a drought, and they expect it to last for a long time and cause serious economic losses.
