Mass migrations of insects have fascinated mankind throughout recorded history. The sudden appearance of huge numbers of migrants have caused a range of emotions - delight, wonder and awe at the marvels of nature, annoyance at the irritations of clouds of small insects, and trepidation at the approach of locust swarms.
