A huge plague of locusts is wreaking havoc on the Italian island of Sardinia in the worst insect invasion in more than 60 years, local media report. Large swarms are destroying crops and invading homes in Ottana and Orani in the central province of Nuoro. More than 2,000 hectares of farmland has been destroyed by "blankets" of the insects, reports said. The locust invasion has been linked to a recent rise in temperatures after months of cooler weather on the island. |
