squash bug defense


I have been battling squash bugs for the past few weeks and I have two 
questions:  

Sevin seems to help control them but we keep getting rain several times per 
week.  How often can I reapply Sevin?  Can too much Sevin hurt the plants?

Yesterday I found small copper-colored eggs on top of one of the pumpkin 
leaves.  They were in a highly organized little clump.  Are these the eggs of 
the pesky squash bugs or some other pest that I have to figure out how to 
eliminate?!

Thanks!
