The pic you posted of the "bug" is the skin from a Periodical cicada, I think. If I'm right, they only eat twigs from trees and shrubbery. Maybe you can research and fill us (me) in. Best of luck with your Pumpkins!

Havent seen the picture, but if Pappy's right and its a cicada then they eat roots.

The youngins' eat roots while they are in the ground. Up to 17 yrs! Adults eat the twigs. Thanks G for clarifying that!
