Checks for the Locust Pest.

How to check the locust pest Is q
serious question in South Africa.
One of the latest methods proposed
Is to gather the puparia Of parasitic
fly and transmit them in damp moss
to farmers in the infested neighbor-
hoods. The female fly is viviparous
and deposits her Larvae on the neck
OF the locust, where it penetrates the
tissues and causes death. The grub,
now mature, then leaves the empty
shell of the dead locust and burrows
in the ground, where it pupatos, and,
in few days, emerges perfect fly.
Another method is to spray the adj
vuncing hosts Of young locusts with
liquid Insecticides by means of any
good spraying pump American
