Grasshoppers? Eeeww! (Ghastly Neekerbreekers!) Poor Alatįriėl!
For us it's (shudder) Japanese beetles (retch, convulse) and the ever-present, ever-ravenous Bambi (glower; reaches for compound bow...) My poor hobbit-gardens are at their very worst in late July and early August. So this year it's cosmos, by the envelope... just like Sam's movie-garden.
This morning my hobbit-buddy failed to show up. Lonely walk!
