zucchini & squash bugs

Square Foot Gardening List - http://www.flinet.com/~gallus/sqft.html

I've never had trouble with squash vine borers, but I've lost most of my
zucchini harvest  (along with spaghetti squash and pumpkins) to squash
bugs.  These are the ones that look like stink bugs and really smell bad
when squashed too.  Does anyone know how to kill these or control them
or avoid them?  Last year, I used Rotenone on them, but that only kills
the nymphs and the adults got way ahead of me with all the rain we had. 
I know I could use something more potent, but was hoping for a different
approach.  I tried squashing all the eggs I could find, but they were
just everywhere.  

Thanks for any help you can give me.
