Roses
Aphids look like grasshoppers?

Eric,
What you have are Aphids and they are quite common on rose bushes. It
should be easy to find an insecticide that will control them, or if you
want
an organic solution you can just vigorously wash them off the leaves. It
will take them a long time to crawl back. Later on in the summer you
won't
have a problem with them.

This year I planted several different rose bushes along my fence line
for
the first time and. I was so impressed at how well they WERE doing.
Today
I
went out to check and half the leaves were gone and broken. I got to
looking
and there were several bugs on them. I don't know what they are but look
like baby grasshoppers.
What can I do to get rid of them and protect them from other insects. I
am
planning to go to Home Depot this weekend so any help would be
wonderful.
THANKS
Crystal
