Millions of crop-eating insects called Mormon crickets have hatched in America's West and are threatening to destroy millions of acres of crops.

The bugs have swept through Oregon, Idaho, Nevada, Utah, Wyoming, and Colorado.

The insects are particularly attracted to wheat, safflower, and alfalfa fields, and can leave a wake of destruction in their path.

The bugs can't fly but can travel long distances by hopping and crawling, and have become an annoyance as they enter buildings and bring with them a rather unpleasant sensation.
