I need to spray my cukes and wonder what product would be good that wont kill the bees that are busy all day long on my cuckes? If I spray in the evening, will it still kill the bees? Thanks

I would spray in the evening. Most things that kill cuke beetles and squash bugs will kill bees also.

I agree with Big Moon. I spray during the evening hours, when the bee activity is low.

I have seen lots of dead cuke beetles, but no dead bees laying around.

Hopefully I am minimizing the damage to the bee population by spraying at that time of the day.
