I'm finding egg cases down in my clumps of irises.  They have been  built 
less than 6 inches off the ground.  Seems like I remember reading or  hearing 
that the height of the egg clusters were indicative of the amount of  snow coming 
in the winter!>  <vbg>  
 
I can't locate anything on the Internet?  Anyone remember this?  
 
Did discover that my large population of mantis is probably the reason my  
hopper infestation disappeared over night!  They love hoppers!
