Nolo will work, Marti.............it just takes a while to notice that it is working. Hey, the bigger they are, the more that will dine on the dead one, and that is how Nolo works.

Ok good. I'll see if I can find some tomorrow. Where is it commonly available?

I had to order mine, but some years my nursery (Hartwell's) carries it...........will give him a call and see if he has it this year. Try calling places you frequent and see if they have it. I have some left over that I am using now, but don't know how effective it is. I am going to get "fresh" as a few years ago when they were so bad, I used it generously and didn't have grasshoppers for a number of years. It DOES work, just not immediately !!!

Strong's in C'ton & Marshall Grain in G'vine both have 2 pkgs in stock (as of 2pm today) - both about $20

Get a couple guineas hens, problem solved! I saw a special on TX on this, it works. Oh course some people prefer grasshoppers to guineas. Barbra

I would love to have guineas, Barbra, but the coyotes think they are so delicious. I don't even mind the "pot-rack, pot-rack" sound they make. At least they let you know when a predator is near by.

Found some at my local nursery. I'll pick it up tomorrow.

I've got a lot of grasshoppers also, what is this "Nolo", I've never heard of it. Is it safe to use around vegetables, children, and dogs?

Here is your answer, and I have used it for years.

I've used Nolo bait for years. It's best to put it down when you are first seeing small grasshoppers. I imagine any time is better than no time, though. I buy it from Peaceful Valley Farm Supply, online.

Thanks carrie. I have noticed a pair of roadrunners catching grasshoppers in the yard lately and I was a bit worried about that.

I found some at the Argyle feed store for $16.99 for a pound. That is the same price as Amazon online. Not a bad price.

We happen to have yellow crested night herons who love grasshoppers. Ours are very smnall.
