Wonder if Kudzu got a similar 'blow' in Mississippi? So far, we can find no use for KUDZU(a native to ASIA)except the occasional entertainment value for late night drunks..where it once was watched grow 2 inches into a man's open windshield in his garage in Miss. overnight to the delight of onlooking bored and drunk revelors...lol

Our ranchers have used it in droughts, but they have to use burners to burn the thorns off before the cattle feed on it.

Other than that, the prickly pear is a pest.

Wonder if they got a moth somewhere that eats mesquite?

And can I have some?

I hate it when the moths get on my prickly pears.
