i have what looks like a transparent milky white baby grasshopper. i've seen it
on my oregano and a few tomato plants. it's about 1/8 to 1/4 inch long and it
jumps around like a grasshopper. does anybody know what it is? And what I can do to control them.

Sounds like a grasshopper nymph - grasshoppers and such hatch from their eggs as mini adults, without wings, and they're usually pretty pale or translucent. they will molt several times as they grow, becomming darker and adult colored over time. You can control them the same as adult grasshoppers. Hope this helps!
