Nolo-Bait

This stuff is awesome. If you're wondering if it really works, it sure does. This is my second year using Nolo bait, and I have almost no grasshoppers left on my property. The ones I do find are small, weak, and soft-bodied. I can literally reach out and grab them crush them in my hand. They are obviously ill. if you have a large repository of grasshopper population near you, for instance if you are surrounded by fields of grains, then this might not work for you. I do not have a whole lot of influx of new grasshoppers, so this stuff has been wonderful for me. I distributed small amounts in my various vegetable gardens, using white plastic bins from the dollar store turned on their side, this keeps the brand from getting blown around or wet in the rain and grasshoppers are supposedly attracted to white things. I add another tablespoon or so to each box every 3 weeks or so across the growing season so there is always some fresh bait. Easy, and Incredibly effective. Totally worth what seems like a high price.

Loved the product worked well too bad it’s been out of stock the past few years

Works good. The key word here is bait. This stuff will attract grass hoppers. If you are not careful the grass hoppers will eat your stuff before they die. Spread it far away from your garden.

This is a good product I've been told by many people. But it does take a while to work and only works on grasshoppers less than about 3/4" in size. If you have a severe infestation of grasshoppers, this is not the product to use. I used a couple of bags of this initially, had I waited for it work before trying a more aggressive product they would have destroyed our shrubs, flowers and trees.

This product really works!! We had an infestation of grasshoppers in our yard last year and they destroyed all of my plants and my vegetable garden. I was told it would be twice as bad this year, as they lay their eggs in the fall to hatch in spring. At the first sign of baby grasshoppers, I put the bait down. There were hundreds of babies, I could see them all when I mowed the grass. I sprinkled the bait around my plants/flowers, and I also used pvc to make bait "stations", as we have sprinklers that go on daily. It has been over 2 months since I first applied it, and I have seen very few adult grasshoppers!

We used NOLO Bait last year but could not see any difference from when we applied it over the following week. Just as many grasshoppers! This year we abandoned organic solutions and purchased Safer Insect killing soap. Within two days, my very skeptical wife could only find 2 grasshoppers remaining, and she loved killing the one she could get a hold of. So far, my experience with 3 different organic grasshopper eliminators has been a zero. Some of the biggest problems are all the finicky conditions that are required for application. Overall, I would like to go organic but so far I have seen no elegant solutions that are effective.

In the past I ordered Semaspore Bait which worked well. It had a shelf life of only 8 weeks if not refrigerated, and needed to be spread with no rain in sight for 48 hours. The NOLO bait didn't say anything about a shelf life and I spread it with the same criteria as I used to do with Semaspore bait. Unlike Semaspore bait, I have seen no reduction in the amount of grasshoppers and they continue to multiply. Maybe it was an old batch or something but I am very disappointed.

We have purchased Semaspore from Planet Natural.com for the last 20 years. This year I found out they are selling out and the whole place is in transition and you cannot buy from them till the transfer is complete - FREAK OUT! Out grasshopper plague is HUGE this year and I didn't know what to do. We do not use chemicals in our gardens, without their killer we were not going to have any garden left for us. I got online with my Amazon Smile and TA-DA..found this stuff. It's PERFECT! Looks just like the Planet Natural stuff just a different name and brand. RELIEF!! Its tiny flakes and you simply sprinkle it around the plants. Grasshoppers (oh, and JUST grasshoppers - it does not affect any good bugs, animals, or humans-BONUS!) eat it, die, and the cannibals that they are eating their dead and also die: WIN-WIN!! I will be coming back for more soon - thank you NOLO!!
