Good topic Mella
Perhaps the most challenging problem is EDUCATION.
somehow, word has to spread to totally eliminate any notion that there is something good, beneficial, cute, harmless, or whatever PC or positive about these pests. While they may well be in other locales, in Hawaii they are an invasive species with no known natural predators to control them.
I also heard a distubing report of some of these pests being maliciously relocated to non infested areas. I'm not one for big brother and abundance of laws, but anyone caught doing so should be punished to the extreme, not some piddly fine.
Perhaps a candidate for the rock n roll benefit...
