Bug Blocker Inc. ( http://www.webugbugs.com ) has developed a method of using radio waves that can be fielded to protect food sources as well as storage facilities from an insect attack, either man made or nature made, not to mention just keeping the pests under control under normal circumstances.
When America was involved in it's expansion across the mid west in mid 1800's, the only way the army could stop the Indian raids on settlements was destroying the food source that the tribes used. Bison, the American Buffalo, was nearly wiped out to deny Native American Indians food and shelter.
A modern twist to that concept could be used by terrorists to infest an enemies food supply and growing areas with a variety of insects that could devastate crops and food supplies. Don't think so? Think again.
"On November 30, 1989. A group calling itself “the Breeders” claimed to have released the Mediterranean fruit fly in Los Angeles and Orange counties, and threatened to expand their attack to the San Joaquin Valley, an important centre of Californian agriculture.
With perverse logic, they said that unless the Government stopped using pesticides they would assure a cataclysmic infestation that would lead to the quarantining of California produce, costing 132,000 jobs and $13.4 billion in lost trade." ( Jeffrey A. Lockwood )
Not any more.
Washington State U. and the USDA have tested this technology and have found that in post harvest production, certain radio waves can be used in the eradication of insects ( http://www.csrees.usda.gov/
