I have grasshoppers that are eating my bluegrass. ?

Question

They have yellow edged wings and are very large. I live in suburban New York. What species are they, and more importantly how can i get rid of them?

Answer 1

Why the heck do u have blue grass?!?!

Answer 2

They're normal, they don't do any long-lasting damage, and they constitute an important part of the food cycle.  They'll be gone in a week or two, just let them be.

We used to call them locusts.  It's probably one of these guys.

Answer 3

I'd get redgrass that eats grasshoppers and teach them a lesson.

Answer 4

just buy insect killer
