Bill: Most likely they are squash bugs AKA stinkbug eggs? squash vine borer eggs
are usually laid singly I've never seen them in clusters. squash bug eggs are
laid in clusters usually underneath a leaf near a leaf vein and are metallic
brownish/copper color and are roundish while squash vine borer eggs are flat
round and a reddish color, I have found borer eggs almost anywhere on the plants
on top of leaves underneath leaves and vines especially underneath the ends of
the vines where they just start to curl up, I find Sevin to be ineffective
against squash bugs.
