Default grasshoppers?

Subject: grasshoppers


David,
I'm down to my third batch of tomatoes and I don't want to put these out until I get rid of my problem sooooo HELP!!!!!! I laid down my first batch and that was around March and all was lost but I dindt' know why. So I layed down my second batch (this was to be planted at my sisters house but now took the place of the first one) Well, that one along with all my veggies, flowers, vines are being eaten to the core by mainly grasshoppers the amount with I've never seen before. I did have problems with snails and grubs but I'm able to handle those but don't know what to do about the grasshoppers. I've used a couplt of Ortho sprays (which I hated to do since I hate using poisons on veggies but I was desperate) and some die but then others eat them and continue with the damage. I only have one more batch of plants left and I'd like to see them grow without getting eaten. What can I do.?????
Always a friend
