Farmers are reminded to be vigilantly looking for second generation locust egg laying.
Due to the earliness of this egg laying some of these eggs are likely to be dormant over winter and some will hatch in late autumn.
The DPI is interested in marking egg beds for future monitoring of egg development in preparation for the spring hatchings.
Victorian farmers can contact the locust hotline on 1300 135 559 or alternately Dale Grey at Cobram DPI on 0409 213 335. NSW land holders can contact their local LHPA.
