WELLINGTON, Colo.—Farmers in northern Colorado are coping with a grasshopper plague.

CSU agricultural researcher Bob Bee says the insects can eat more than twice their weight in food every day.

Bee tells KMGH-TV () the Larimer County infestation may be the result of the drought in southern Colorado.

He says many of the grasshoppers had to look for a new food source and they may have migrated north with the monsoon winds in July.
