For the last 5 years, leafhoppers have invaded and did major damage to my dahlias and I am sick and tired and I'm not going to take it anymore!!

What types of control methods for these buggers does everyone else use?

Hi Tater, I don't use chemicals in the yard if at all possible since I'm on a well. I have never had leaf hoppers.
