Mutant Insects

Mutant Insects

by Jason Tyler

To start with, make a large cage (20' by 20' by 8' ??) out of chicken-wire that could hold in locusts or perhaps grasshoppers, preferably over grass or something similar to their natural habitat. Then gather up a few dozen of the species and place them in the cage. Leave them alone for a few weeks (or more) to generate, breed, populate, have sex, or whatever you call it while you call around and get a list of all the common pesticides/insecticides (I'll refer to them as P/I) used in that area. Buy a gallon or so of each one, and a good spray bottle (or something to distribute the P/I).

When the insects have grown to a few hundred in population, spray the area (insect cage) with less than the recommended dosage on the P/I directions, or enough to kill about half of the insects (make sure the P/I is evenly distributed so every insect gets the same amount). Then let the insects regenerate to a few hundred or so, and repeat the process.

If you don't understand so far, the reason behind this is some of the insects were naturally more immune to the P/I to begin with than other insects. Exposing the insects to the P/I will only kill the insects that weren't very immune to P/I. This only leaves the insects with the "good" genes, and they will breed and (hopefully) have offspring with the same, or better, genes.

After this process is repeated about a dozen times (this might take from a couple months to half a year), let the insects into the wild and see what happens. If you're lucky, many farmers will start to lose their crops because the insects have built up an immunuty to their P/I and are rapidly spreading thier genes to wild insects. If all goes well, you'll have the whole county in panic and they won't know what hit them!
