Lawn Pests: Leaf Hoppers
jhultman writes in article dated Wed, 16 Jul 2003 11:19:25 -0700:
I've had what I believe are leaf hoppers on my lawn for several weeks now. Step into the grass and hundreds jump up to get out of the way. They're green, tiny and look almost like miniature grasshoppers. Large head, triangular body. About an eighth of an inch. I've tried the soap spray but to no avail. If I used a power mower that sucked the clippings into a bag I'd probably be on top of it population wise but since it is a small, 100 sq. ft area I use a rotary push mower. I don't see any birds looking to use them either, I surely don't have a need for them... Any suggestions? Relax and have a cold drink. Assess the damage they've done so far. Your choices are live with them or poison them. --Thundermaker$yahoo.com (Spud Demon) The above may not (yet) represent the opinions of my employer. |
