DuPage County was formed on 9 February 1839 out of Cook County. The county took its name from the DuPage River, which was, in turn, named after a French fur trapper, DuPage.
Jeff Hahn, University of Minnesota. Spittlebug is a common insect in strawberries in Minnesota home gardens but it is not usually damaging enough to be considered a problem. The nymphs create a foamy mass that they use for protection.
Wipe the spittlebug foam off plants to control small infestations. A white foamy substance appearing on the leaves of plants is a sure sign you have a spittlebug infestation on your hands. Thankfully, this frothy foam in small amounts isnât harmful to people, mammals or plants, and spittlebugs are more of an annoyance than a threat.
