Grasshoppers are munching on my neps!!!!!!
The title says it all: Grasshoppers are munching on my neps!!!!!!
I hate them hate them HATE THEM!!!!!! Now my plants are full of holes. One of my pitcher is even chewed in half. Some of my neps leaves are no more, except for the middle part which connects to the pitcher. How can I repel or kill these evil insects before they swarm like locusts and munch my plants to death?

biological weapon-mantis, if you isolate your nep away from other plant, chances are the mantis will not "migrate" away from it

Re: Grasshoppers are munching on my neps!!!!!!
lol, casey, that's from the experience of a fellow player, he told me he keeps his indoor with his plant, never go away, guard the plant well
mantis...can be found anywhere, especially in rural area, just need a pair of predatory eyes

Re: Grasshoppers are munching on my neps!!!!!!
I used to have one near my nep but after a while, it went away. BTW. Won't it fall into the traps? I was thinking that would have happened to the one near my plant but unsure.
