in Northern Arizona. 2dogs enjoyed the cooler weather. I planted two more trees in the back yard, a flowering plum and another sycamore. The grasshoppers had made twigs out of a few plants, so I used a repellent and by Monday morning they were almost gone. Hopefully I can salvage what they ate.
Until I blog again, always wear protective clothing when trying to kill grasshoppers with chemicals. I must now sign off to scratch.

scratch, scratch. poor you. hope you and your plants recover from them nasty grasshoppers...
My dogs are enjoying the cooler temperatures as well. I'm glad that we don't have munching grasshoppers in our yard.
I have all sorts of munching insects at my house. A friend told me to fill a spray bottle with Listerine and spray it around the deck where I'll be and it will keep the critters out. IT WORKED!! My SIL always gets really bad poison ivy and she uses Listerine as well to stop itching.
I'm jest sayin'....ya never know just HOW you might win the battle with bugs.
