The locusts have even entered residential areas in Jaipur in search of green areas, reports the Indian Express. The migratory pests have also invaded eastern Maharashtra, reports Hindustan Times. The government has now deputed several teams to control the crop-destroying insects by spraying pesticides all over farms.

Considered the most vicious attack in nearly three decades, people are now sharing scary visuals of the locust attack:

While these visuals are sending chills down our spine, this is a greater concern for farmers. We just hope and pray they are able to save their crops during this terrible attack.
