Locusts at Biblical Levels

Much like in the days of Moses, locusts swarmed several countries in Africa and the Middle East. These ravenous insects devour crops and devastate the land area. They invade homes, farms, and the very air around you. Nowhere is safe from the flying, buzzing cloud of locusts. Cyclones in the area bring enough rainfall for the desert locusts to breed and increase their numbers 8,000-fold. The countries affected are considering the invasion a “crisis” and have programs to battle the bugs, but the usual methods are no longer proving effective. Also like Moses, I would be leading an exodus straight out of the country if one of the creepy locusts flew into my face.
