I have sprayed sevin for the Cuke's and killed them. No sign of Svb, but I am still getting holes and chew marks on some of my leaves. What are the other insect pests of pumpkins that I have to watch out for. I caught this one insect that looked like a giant mosquito poking his rear end into the ground multiple times near the base of my plant and wasn't sure if he was laying eggs that are harmfull to my plants, so I chased him away. Insect pests that I know
1. Cucumber Beetle 2. Squash Vine Borer 3. Squash Bug 4... 5...
Please add to my list if there is any. Thank you

I usually get flea beetles when plants are first set out in the patch hoop house. Never saw them this year!
