While there are many different methods to get rid of grasshoppers, they can all be grouped into three different categories:


Environmental​

Organic Applications

Animal Control


It might be tempting to just pick one method out of the list you’ll find below, but you will have better results by mixing a few different methods to form an integrated approach to grasshopper control.


This way, if one method isn’t 100% effective, the other techniques can pick up the rest.

Let’s get into it!


Environmental Grasshoppers control.

The first line of defense against grasshoppers is to either create an unattractive garden environment for them, or to create an attractive environment away from your garden


Flower plants control

One of the first things you can do is plant flowers that grasshoppers do not like. Mixing these into your garden layout will keep grasshoppers away from plants that you don’t want them to munch on:

Dianthus

Lilac

Forsythia

Crepe myrtle

Moss rose

Verbena

Salvia

Sage

Lantana

Juniper

Artemisia

Jasmine
