"Hoppers are tough but not impossible. I recommenmd 2 lines of defense. One is netting that covers your entire plant. It needs to cover the plant and go down to the ground and get achored in a way the hoppers can't crawl underneath. Second is a biological control. You'll need to look around for this but it's packet of something and when the hopper eats it they die. It like infects them with something that's deadly only to grasshoppers. You should be able to get both of these controls from a large plant nursery." from rangerdanger himself. http://www.texasgrown.com/pages/articles/control_grasshoppers.htm
they go away quickly. Or you can spray the living shit out of them with Sevin which isn't going to do your system any good at all. Kills just about anything; takes longer to work on humans. Does neem oil work on hoppers?
