Thanks for the Wikpedia link Vijay, I  found this interesting fact which will be of great value to cricket (of the bat and ball variety) fans–

“In 1935, Lord’s Cricket Ground in London was among venues affected by leatherjackets. Several thousand were collected by ground staff and burned, because they caused bald patches on the wicket and the pitch took unaccustomed spin for much of the season.”
