Habitat reconfiguration, manual removal, mechanical barriers, and pesticide treatments are ways to kill locusts. The insects in question exist as the swarming stage of short-horned grasshoppers (Acrididae family). Their presence reflects the availability of longer, well-water grasses and turfs whose habitat may be altered with decreased irrigation and increased mowing and whose life cycles and natural histories may be disrupted with manual and mechanical removal, pesticide schedules (of which beta-cyfluthrin is the least toxic), and physical barriers (such as row covers for edibles).
