I'm not a Sevin fan. Sevin kills beneficial insects, bees & earthworms.
Admire (imidacloprid) twice a year keeps cb's under control. Those who
escape systemic treatment are best treated with Warrior (lambda-cyhalothrin)
or Capture (bifenthrin). Unfortunately, both are restricted use.

spray plants with Sevin on a weekly basis and after it rains. bury the vines
also helps to prevent.

Does anyone know a good method of prevention? And if that fails, a good
treatment?

Hmm, this sounds very similar to a disease I have been fighting. This year
2
plants had it. They did not die right away , took nearly a month. Plant
slowly turned yellowish and leaves wilted somewhat, and then slowly died
off. It did not grow at all after turning yellow. I sprayed with seven,
and
it kept it off some of my plants but was not 100 percent effective. Also,
it
did not bother other pumpkins and gourds, only affected C. maxima. Could
you send me more information on this disease?
Thanks,
John
