In article , Franz Heymann
writes You have a point. I mentioned the use of Cactoblastis cactorum to clear the prickly pears out of the Little Karoo. After the job was done, there were rumours floating around that the insect had started turning its atention to pumpkin fields. I don't know whether that threat ever materialised. There was the whole rabbit/opuntia thing in Oz - I can't remember whether the rabbits were introduced control the opuntias or vice versa, but either way it didn't afterwards look to be such a good idea. -- Kay "Do not insult the crocodile until you have crossed the river" |
