From Matthew Vandenberg
I had no idea beetles could be such pests, as in the case of the bark beetle damaging North American forests (5 November 2011, p 38). But I might have a solution. In Australia we adopted some amazingly beautiful creatures to get rid of pests – in particular the cane beetle. They’re called cane toads. We don’t mind shipping a few million to you, for a small fee.
