 They're here again, nothing seems to hurt them.
 Is there anything besides crawling around on the ground 
 and hunting them down, then (SQUASHING) them with your fingers?  Uck!!
 Is that why they are call that, Squash Bug???
 
 I really need some help, I have 9 very nice plants growing
 and I don't think I can't finger pick the bugs when my plants get 
 very much bigger.
 
 Sevin 10 is a joke, I think they thrive on the stuff.

Belle,
   Asana will kill squash bugs, but may be a restricted use insecticide in 
your state. I suggest to keep squishing and also go to your local Cooperative 
extension service and inquire into taking a course leading to a licence to 
buy restricted use products. All commercial farmers have, or should have 
licences and training in the proper use of agricultural chemicals. You don't 
need to get a commercial sprayers license. They usually have a private 
applicators licence for individuals. Keep squishing
