What is the best way to eliminate sqush bugs in the garden?

Question

I have lost 5 plants in the last 2 weeks.

Answer 1

Michael they are hard to kill with pesticide.  The best way is to pick them off, and drop into paper cup of soapy water.  Look at under side of leaves and scrape off eggs.  They are very small, but can see them.  This is a hard job but after the 2nd time you will find lot's less.  They will completely kill your squash if let unchecked.

Good Luck
