In "Sure Signs of the Apocalypse" news, over 250,000 acres in Tooele County, Utah, have become infested with hungry grasshoppers, which hatched a few weeks ago and have started invading the suburbs. And the worst is yet to come, with the grasshoppers expected to grow in size and number as the summer wears on, devouring everything in their path. "I'd call this the closest that I've seen to a plague in a long time," said Mitch Halligan, whose yard is literally blanketed by the pests, up to 2,000 insects per square foot.
Halligan's neighbor has been forced to use the back entrance to his home since the grasshoppers took over his front door. The hoppers have even found their way into another resident's house and car. "I think you could say it's the worst ever in Tooele County," said Linden Greenhalgh, who is leading the effort to rid the insects by spraying poison on hatching grounds.
Experts aren't exactly sure why the grasshoppers decided to invade Utah this year. Some say it's because of a particularly rainy June following several dry years. Others say it's because the grasshoppers heard the skiing was amazing.

Oh man! You can make good money off of live grasshoppers. Gather them in in small home made cages, and sell them to pet stores. All kind of pet stores will be happen to get them. Or you can even take there hopping legs off each of them and fry them up and roll them around in chocolate, they are yummy. I use to live in Hawaii and they sell them cooked and roll in chococlate 9 large ones for about $ eight dollars.

It is a shame that grasshoppers are not on the food menu for the U.S. population as with, some other countries.
