Grasshoppers threaten county crops amid hot dry weather

Grasshoppers damage crops in parts of the county and could worsen with continuing heat. Levels of eight to ten per square yard are damaging, three to four per yard can injure gardens and field borders. Control tips include toxaphene, malathion, diazinon, and sevin with label restrictions. Bagworm infestations rise on evergreens and deciduous trees, squash bugs appear in gardens, and heat stress endangers livestock and pets in sunlit cabs.
