Is there anything I can put on my garden to deter or kill grasshoppers,
without hurting my ladybugs? I am starting to see hundreds of small
grasshoppers, and I know they will grow up to be big ones and destroy my
plants! But I have so many ladybugs in the garden which are very beneficial,
so I don't want to kill them too! Any ideas?

Thanks!

Nosema Iocustae

It claims up to 90% effective but .. that would probably be expecting
a bit much.


Another page that just has some useful info.. and mentions nosema
locustae says 50%.
