Had squash bugs and they damaged a few leaves. Have taken care of the bugs. Do I remove the leaves which were damaged by the bugs or do I leave them? Any advise would be great and much appreciated.

I would take them out because the bugs can carry disease and it may spread.

I cut with clean knife. If it is dry I do not treat. If just after rain I sprinkle small amount of sulfer to stop rot.

I am a novice grower.

Thank you. I think you are correct.
