>> Have you ever tried that for grasshoppers? I'm thinking it would be a waste of good food that I could have snacked on.
Nope! I never tried it and never even read about grasshopper deterrence. I just thought "maybe". Slugs are my Nemesis, not insects.
However, I read that in India, Bhut Jolokia chili peppers are rubbed on garden fences so that wild elephants won't break in. If it stops elephants, it might stop grasshoppers.
And I know it stops elephants! No elephant has EVER eaten any of my Bok Choy or Snow Peas. They don;t even come close to my yard. how's that for deterrence?
