== Description == <!--T:5-->


<!--T:25-->
Locusts are found underground in large groups along with their nests.


== Spawning == <!--T:6-->


<!--T:26-->
 
Locusts spawn from cages and nest found in cave ceiling where light from the sky is less than 3, they respawn sometime after.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
== Harvesting ==
 
The remnants of locusts cannot be harvested like animal corpses.  Sawblade locusts drop loot upon death, without the need to harvest with a knife.  Bronze and corrupt locusts drop nothing.  Instead, break the locust nests to obtain loot and stop more locusts from spawning there.
 
Nests can be destroyed with a pickaxe and yield: {{Icon link|Metal-parts.png|Special:MyLanguage/Metal parts|metal parts}}, {{Icon link|Flaxtwine.png|Special:MyLanguage/Twine|flax twine}}, {{Icon link|Metal-scraps.png|Special:MyLanguage/Metal scraps|metal scraps}} and {{Icon link|Jonasparts-tank01.png|Special:MyLanguage/Jonas part|Jonas parts}}.

Locusts will tend to stay as a group in the same area. When a player comes within 15 blocks of a Locust it will begin to glow and seek out the player sometimes bring along other locusts with it. Bronze Locusts have a melee attack that does 1.5 damage, Corrupt ones deal 4. They attack by leaping, sometimes taunting the player.
