U Of L Prof Says No Grasshopper Infestation In 2023 | June 30, 2023 | Micah Quinn | Bridge City News

With the recent heat warning in our city comes the potential of more of those pesky grasshoppers invading our fields and yards.

That’s according to Dan Johnson, a professor in the department of Geography and Environment at the University of Lethbridge.

Just a few years ago in 2021, grasshoppers invaded the backyards of residents on the westside of Lethbridge.

However, Johnson says that same issue won't happen this year.

Johnson says there are two main species of grasshoppers in the southern part of our province.

They are the clear-winged grasshopper and the two-striped grasshopper.
