How did I get locusts?
Locusts are not home invaders and in the adult stage should one venture inside it will not survive long indoors. These insects are not cicadas, but are certain species of grasshoppers usually associated with grasslands, so their feeding habits may lure them to agricultural crop fields, gardens, mature plants and seedlings in lawns. While a locust may accidentally get inside through a door or window, these pests do not infest homes and can be easily removed by using a paper towel or napkin to grab and dispose of the locust in the trash.
