Re: Eggplant ants

Square Foot Gardening List - http://www.flinet.com/~gallus/sqft.html

Okay, I checked out Gardens Alive and did a search for grasshopper control.
They suggested using Diatomaceous Earth to kill them.  Our experiment for
tomorrow -- we are going to put some in a jar and sprinkle Diatomaceous
Earth on them and see how long it takes for them to die - if it works at
all.  Thanks, Cathy!  ... Nickie
