Millions of Mormon crickets have invaded six counties in Nevada, creating a bug-infested nightmare for many residents. The crickets, which can grow up to 2 inches long and weigh up to 1 ounce, are voracious eaters and can quickly decimate crops and vegetation. The crickets are thought to have been drawn to the area by drought conditions. Mormon crickets thrive in dry, arid environments, and the recent drought in Nevada has created ideal conditions for their growth. #nevada #Mormoncrickets #crickets
