Many people in the western United States and across the world have problems with grasshoppers eating their crops. Those gardeners interested in organic grasshopper control might be interested in learning about Nosema locustae. It is a naturally occurring microbe that infects and kills grasshoppers and Mormon crickets, and is not harmful to humans, pets, or wildlife. Look for it in your gardening catalogs if you don't have a local source for this kind of thing.
