I have some kind of white fly or something. Brown eggs under side of leaves and white flies or bugs of some kind all over the place. Anyone know what this is and how to treat for them. Thanks, Mike

The eggs sound like squash bug eggs and when they are young they have a whitish appearance. I know this because my patch is currently a popular breeding ground for them. I've never noticed them flying.

i think south hill is right it does sound like squash bugs,and i have seen them fly,go to your local coop dealer and tell them you need warrior are furidan,see if they have a open jug of warrior tell them you only need about a cup full,take a container with you just in case,i would only put 2 tbls to 2 gallons of water,are just take your sprayer with you,tell them to put 2 tbls in for you they probally will not charge you anything,i have sprayed warrior on the eggs and it killed them it is some good stuff,just be careful when spraying wear glove,and put on long sleeve shirt and put some goggles on.
