This comes from the debate on birding-aus about
locusts. There was an article in the C Times last week about a swarm
heading towards Canberra. My guess would be that if it does get
close the ACT Government's most likely reaction will be to start
spraying.
Later items in the thread discuss whether the
sprays are toxic to birds (no clear answer was given) and express different
views about how much consultation has been involved in other areas affected by
the current plague.
