Reason one: locusts are not good food.

In modern society, locusts are snacks after meals, so it is no problem to eat them casually as a snack. If it is a staple food, locusts are far less than rice noodles, especially fried locusts, which are low in protein and high in fat, so they are not suitable for long-term consumption, and there is no way to fill their stomachs.

Reason 2: It takes a lot of energy to catch locusts.

Friends who have caught locusts must know how difficult it is to catch those locusts flying in the sky. Even if there are locusts everywhere, you need some skills to catch them. If a net bag goes down, there won't be too many locusts caught, and there is no way to feed a family.

Reason 3: The plague of locusts is so fast that it flies away after eating all the food.

Locusts cross the border very quickly. If you have seen the documentary, you will know that it usually takes only a few minutes for a large number of insects to cross the border and eat all the plants and food on the ground. By the time you react to catch locusts, the locust plague has flown away.

Locust:

Grasshoppers (grasshoppers), ORTHOPTERA Acridoidea, are called grasshoppers and Cao Meng. There are more than 10000 species in the world, which are distributed in tropical and temperate grasslands and desert areas.

Locusts mainly include locusts and earthworms. There are three kinds of migratory locusts in China: oriental migratory locust, Asian migratory locust and Tibetan migratory locust. Among them, Locusta migratoria manilensis is the most widely distributed and seriously damaged in China, and it is the main locust species that causes locust disasters in China.
