Grasshoppers

–by Jeff Whitworth — Field Crops, Entomology

Grasshopper eggs, deposited last fall, have been producing small nymphs for about the past 2 weeks. Thus, if field borders, weedy ditches, or any non-disturbed areas adjacent to crop fields are infested with these small nymphs- it is an ideal time to treat these areas to get good control (see fig 3).
