"In drought years, rivers and lakes shrink and low-lying areas are exposed, which also provides locusts with more suitable places for laying eggs. On the other hand, plants grown in arid environment have a low moisture content, and locusts feed on this, grow faster and have strong reproductive ability..."

Wang Bo did not want to listen to these introductions anymore, so he turned off the TV and stood up in dismay.

Eva came over with her big belly and gave him a cup of coffee, and said gently: "Don't worry, my dear, the locusts have not gone south yet. Perhaps the Ministry of Agriculture will soon find a way to clean up them."

Wang Bo said distressedly: "You know, New Zealand is too small, and it won't take long for the locusts to come south. Sunset Town is too tempting for them. We have large patches of grass here and water here, so they must want to come here even more."

"But they can't lay eggs here in us, they won't want to stay in Sunset Town, this is their nature, they just want to destroy us."

Indeed, during the Anti-Japanese War, the Chinese compared the Japanese to locusts, and the two sides had many similarities.

For example, the Japanese were crazy about plundering China's wealth and resources and killing the Chinese people frantically, rather than trying to occupy China to survive forever on this land.

Locusts also have a natural hatred for beautiful places with beautiful mountains and rivers. They must lay eggs on land with a vegetation coverage rate of less than 50%. If a place has beautiful mountains and rivers and without exposed land, locusts cannot reproduce.

However, they will destroy these beautiful mountains and rivers, eat up all the green plants, and leave bare land, so that there will be a place to survive?

In the evening, Wang Bo did not rest, but led his farmers and cowboys to prepare for the fight. He ignored the New Zealand government's regulations and had prepared several illegal methods to kill locusts.

New Zealand has many high-efficiency, low-toxicity, and low-residue pesticides, but there is no counterpart for locusts, which creates difficulties for farmers and ranchers.

Fortunately, Motak had a solution. He once reserved a suspension agent made of pyrethroids and mineral oil emulsions as raw materials. After spraying, it can adhere to dust in the air and then enter the locusts to kill them.

Wang Bo was so happy when he saw this insecticide, he patted Motak's shoulder and said, "You have made great contributions, man, I want to reward you, but how did you think of stocking up this insecticide?"

Motak smiled bitterly and said, "Everything is God's will. I considered that our farm had just been opened and it would attract many pests, so I prepared it. Unexpectedly, there were not many insects in Sunset Town, so it was useless."

This agent is a suspended contact reagent. They are diluted with clean water and sprayed out. They can stay in the air, then come into contact with the locust epidermis or appendages and seep into the insect body, or corrode the waxy layer of the insect body, or block the valve, thereby killing the insect.

However, Wang Bo was happy and encountered two more problems. One was that the medicine was insufficient. Motak expected that pests would come to the farm, but he did not expect that a locust plague would break out.

The second question is how to spray it. The farm area is too large, so it is best to need agricultural aircraft to spray pesticides. Before, they all rented aircraft, so where to rent it now? All farms and ranches are in a hurry to need agricultural aircraft to help.

Fortunately, there is a Hercules super train in Sunset Town. After mixing pesticides and water, it can be sprayed out through the train, but the effect is definitely not as good as that of a farm aircraft.

But this was the only useful method. Wang Bo decided to use it, and then the firefighting train from the town fire brigade came roaring.

Bo Dad also came up with an idea, and he said: "For twenty or thirty years, we have had locust plagues in our hometown, especially during the ten-year disaster, locusts have raged a lot."

Wang Bo asked: "How to deal with it?"

Bo Dad racked his brains to recall: "I remember using Dibaiwan Pest, which was scattered on weeds and crops, and then sprinkled on the hay with Dibaigen on the hay and dried it, ignited it and smoked it to death."

Wang Bo smiled bitterly. This method was useless. Whether it was Dibaiwan or Dibaigen, New Zealand was not allowed to use this highly toxic pesticide.

One day later, the locusts were spread out in two groups, going north to harm North Island, and heading south toward the sunset, Queenstown, and Dunedin.

Wang Bo played the slogan of "either the insect dies or I live", asking his subordinates to "fight to death and never retreat". "We must withstand the attacks of these bitches and kill them!"

Peterson reminded him, "Boss, the slogan is wrong. Either the insect dies or I live. Isn't this the same thing?"

Lao Wang said: "Am I, of course I know this is the meaning. What I mean is to kill the bugs and let's live well!"

Peterson smiled awkwardly, "It's right, boss."

Seeing that the situation was not good, the New Zealand government and the Ministry of Agriculture finally launched a special meeting of parliament to urgently discuss whether strict controls on pesticides and some highly toxic drugs can be temporarily relaxed to kill these locusts.

After learning the news, Wang Bo was so angry that he almost spurted out his old blood. When is it still there to hold a meeting? Democracy is not good. He has to hold a meeting to discuss anything, which is a waste of time.

Xiao Meng's eyes were very good. It flew in the air and then saw the locusts coming from the air.

All birds are natural enemies of locusts. Without Wang Bo's order, it took the sheep pecking parrot subordinates to fight with their pride.

Since the sheep pecking parrots have packed up the Tuyi bird, they feel that under the leadership of Brother Xiao Meng, they are invincible and have no need to be afraid of anyone. Seeing these little locusts, they flew up arrogantly.

There are too many locusts, which is the result of several divisions. However, Wang Bo looked around and saw stars in his sight, all flying locusts.

It seemed like a sandstorm had occurred, and when the locust swarm arrived, the whole sky became dim.

Countless locusts' wings flapping the air and making a buzzing sound. The sounds merged together, making people's eardrums ached faintly!

Xiao Meng commanded the parrots to fight against the locusts immediately. They had an absolute advantage in confronting each other without using their hands. It was too easy to deal with the locusts.

But the number of locusts is terrifying. They are crazy and do not avoid bird hunting. They just bump up one after another, hitting Xiao Meng and the parrots.

The commander squatting on Wang Bo's shoulder saw this scene and closed his wings and muttered: "Ah, it hurts when you look!"
