Grasshoppers are indiscriminate.  They will eat most anything.  Some years it seems like they are everywhere.  Other years, they aren’t so bad.  The differential grasshopper and the two-striped grasshoppers are the most common seen in the vegetable garden.  Control is best achieved when the insects are young and generally group together to feed.  Here is information on their control from K-State Research and Extension if you feel control is needed.
