Extract

Throughout the world, wheat bran seems to have been the most popular carrier for locust and grasshopper baits. Wheat bran has, however, always been difficult to obtain in East Africa in sufficient quantity for large scale campaigns, and wartime conditions coinciding with a large outbreak of Schistocerca gregaria have made the position even more acute.
