Adriana - that's a good idea - all the books say to tolerate them as much as
possible since they lay their eggs in grasshopper egg burrows and larvae
feed on the grasshopper eggs - so I could either take advantage of so many
in one spot by knocking as many as I can into soapy water or using rotenone
in just that area. I just hate using anything stronger than bt anymore
since we have so many beneficials - ladybugs, dragonflies, toads and all.
It seems like things are coming into balance better - but then the blisters
show up!
