Grasshoppers attack a wide variety of plants. They eat leaves and occasionally fruit, migrating as they deplete their food sources. In vegetable gardens, they are most numerous in the rows near weedy areas. In late summer, adult grasshoppers lay their eggs in pods in the soil. The adults continue feeding until cold weather kills them. The eggs hatch the following spring. Grasshopper problems are most severe during hot, dry weather. Grasshoppers migrate into green gardens and yards as surrounding areas dry up in the summer heat. Periods of cool, wet weather help keep their numbers under control. Ortho Sevin Brand Carbaryl Insecticide2 will control grasshoppers. Another option is that you can treat the plants with ORTHO Bug-Geta Snail, Slug & Insect Killer or an insecticide containing diazinon as soon as grasshoppers appear. Repeat at weekly intervals if the plants become reinfested. The best thing to use for the squash vine borer moth is Ortho Malathion 50 Plus. Be sure to follow all label directions for application. Our goal is to update the Roundup and Ortho websites weekly. Please return and watch us grow.
