Grasshopper Bait Program

 

Idaho State Department of Agriculture  Mormon Cricket and Grasshopper Control Program offers help to ranchers, farmers, and the general public in the suppression of economically damaging infestations on private or state owned lands. The program provides pest management information, insecticide bait and helps organize aerial cost share projects with private landowners to control damaging populations of these pests.

No bait will be given to a private landowner for an area less than five (5) acres  or for an area five (5) acres or more that is not used for some type of agriculture income.

All private landowners wishing to receive bait must complete Form 1 and return it to the Latah County Extension Office via mail,
hand delivery or email.

Once your form has been received an Agriculture Inspector will visit your property to verify the infestation to accept you into the program and  make bait quantity recommendations.  Once this step is completed a bait voucher will be available for you at the Latah County Extension Office.  Your bait voucher is redeemable at Primeland Cooperative, 2555 Hwy 95 South, Moscow.
