Wow, interesting. How the heck did they get introduced?

 

[rsm]

Plague.

 

[shernernum]

Plague.

I am assuming this was in the greenhouses?

 

[Dubman]

They are in process of clearing affected plants we were told by cast member, not a bus driver

 

[Movielover]

Hmmm, maybe they will use this event as a inspiration...


"Announcing the exciting new addition to Living With The Land...

Now with officially more pricks than the people waiting in line with you!"

 

[Driver]

Another slam to bus drivers!

 

[larryz]

Plague.

We'll know for sure if the water in the ride turns red...

After that, the frogs and boils.

 

[DougK]

Wow, interesting. How the heck did they get introduced?

I guess it went something like this:

"Living With The Land"..."Locusts".

"Locusts"..."Living With The Land".

"Nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet YOU."

Could’ve changed the ride to “Listen to the Locusts”

I can't explain why exactly, because I am old enough to know that anything can happen, but, I am having a hard time grasping a locust infiltration in a basically closed building. But... OK! One or two random ones maybe, but, it was made to sound like the end of time.

My Spider sense is telling me the CM might have embellished a bit.

They reproduce rapidly and a small population can grow exponentially in short order..."Infestation" could mean a few, that if the eggs aren't sprayed, could lead to thousands, with the next wave in the millions. If they found a "few" it likely means there are millions of microscopic eggs that need to be killed in the next week or two.

Quite true. While possible, it just seems very unlikely and is sounds like something a CM would say that was trying to be "funny".

Golden opportunity for Disney to market chocolate covered locust brought to you by Living With the Land

Hope this doesn't give them an excuse to shutter the greenhouses...

This isn't the first time they've had to deal with pests and it won't be last

First the fake tree falls over, now locusts. What next? Are the buffalo going to runaway?
