We have these huge Eastern Lubber grasshoppers here.
While I find 5-10 of them in my yard and driveway-living property area
every year, the folks on the other side of the loop, a mile away, are
overrun with them, and this population is not found in town or once you
get out of this little valley. I often wonder what it is about right
here that they like. Is it some plant that doesn't grow anywhere else?
Fewer cats/predators?
I know what you are talking about, even though I haven't heard the slug
story.
