I have a better idea.  Create and release flocks of
genetically modified mosquitoes.  Then urge the
environmental militants to go out and destroy them.
You save the crops by distracting the ecoterrorists
while simultaneously destroying a bunch of ordinary
mosquitoes.  And oh by the way, Im pretty sure I
saw a frankenfly over near my house too.
