Mixing,
Many things can be mixed and sometimes the effect of the kill is enhanced,
however, I have never seen it in print that you can safely do it. It is
possible that the two applied together could burn the leaves. Some chemicals
can't be mixed together and react in the tank. If you are thinking about a
more effective Squash bug and vineborer remedy, use Asana. Asana is a
restricted use chemical and will require a permit, but it is better than
either. Sevin is good on cucumber beetles but is not great on vine borers and
is ineffective on squash bugs. Methoxychlor is probably the chemical of
choice, unless you can latch on to Asana. Be prepared for sticker shock.
