If I have been spraying Ortho Max every two weeks, then why am I seeing them?
Can I spray Ortho Max every week?

I've been treating my patch with ortho max and the bayer bug killer mixed at
the recommended mix every 2 weeks, been keeping them at bay. I've always
had fits with squash bugs. I treated the soil during the soil prep stage
with grub killer per advice from this group. with all these chemicals, i've
seen less pests than I ever have. I spray of an evening, while the
blossoms are closed, that way the bees can still do what they need to do.
