I understand what the SVB can do to a plant. My question is, what do squash bugs and cucumber beetles do to harm a plant. I am not infested with them but I have saw them both. I have been treating each plant with Merit once a month. On cloudy days when I don't have to run foggers and there's no chance of rain, I spray Talstar on tops and bottoms of leaves. Or... should I be doing something else?

CF, as I understand it, squash bugs, and esp. cuke beetles translocate diseases to yer plant as they chew on the leaves!!! Hope someone w/more knowledge chimes in!!! Peace, Wayne
