Las Vegas lights contributed to 2019 grasshopper swarm, study says


It turns out this mass insect incident was the meeting of two events, Tielens said. One side is the bright dome of light over Vegas, the brightest city in the U.S. But on the side, you need this really large population of grasshoppers.
And that booming population was the result of a wetter winter and spring which had created more vegetation for the grasshoppers to feed, she added.

However, this massive swarm did create a nuisance for tourists and residents, scaring them from going out or just scaring them in general, Tielens said.

In the summer of 2019, the bright lights of Las Vegas drew in more than just tourists looking to gamble and party. The glow of the famed strip also was responsible for summoning some 45 million grasshoppers, according to a recent study.
It turns out Las Vegas gets fewer people to come gamble in the course of a year than the grasshoppers in the sky on that single night, said Elske Tielens, a researcher at the University of Oklahoma and one of the study s authors. ....
