This grasshopper appears to be lost as he makes his way slowly to the top of the glass front door at The News office instead of munching on some farmer’s crop. Grasshoppers are not a problem in the area this year, says Darrell Huber, manager of Richardson Pioneer, though he noted that one farmer said there were a few ’hoppers in one area of his land. No wide-spread spraying for the pests is expected to take place because of the wet spring. Grasshoppers eat grass, leaves and cereal crops, but many grasshoppers are omnivorous. ©Provost News Photo.
