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
