Were I to deploy a swarm of insects as a protest, I'd probably go for locusts since they're a pretty common feeder insect
They're actually the same animal as crickets! Sorta! It's really strange but when I a big group crickets will become locusts after a generation or so and in smaller groups vice versa.
Crickets are different from grasshoppers, they're in the same order but different families. Grasshoppers are the ones that turn into locusts.
Typically you can buy crickets from the Acheta or Gryllodes genus pretty easily, the ones for this prank probably cost around $70-100.
