*^%%$$&& GRASSHOPPERS Help!

[3waycross]

My garden has been increasingly under attack by grasshoppers for the last 2 weeks.

It's starting to reach the point of no return. Hardest hit are eggplant, cauliflower plants

I'd rather not use pesticides except in the form of bait but I may change my mind on that soon.

These hoppers are eating more than my cows on a daily basis.

Any and all suggestions will be considered and appreciated.

This works well.

My turkeys go crazy chasing hoppers.

Just a thought, I would put cayanne pepper on the leaves. Can't remember what pest I had, but it sure worked.

you could also hide some beers thru-out your yard and i imagine Bez would step on some of the grasshoppers looking for the beer.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

I don't think it would just be Bez.

I tried to do an all organic garden for several years. Some things worked some didn't. Would end up having to buy things at the grocery store and didn't know what all was put on those veggies. Now I will use a little Sevin dust.
