Locusts have recently hatched and are eating everything in their path. Israel's desert that was converted to farmland is being plagued by these insects; they are threatening crops all around the country. Pesticides are being sprayed from helicopters and trucks all over, but there are so many around that it is hard to keep up. In addition, it will be even worse when they get their wings in a couple days. Workers said it looked like a slow moving green carpet, as millions of locusts covered the ground.
