I discovered a ton of small blackish, grey small eggs on the underside of the plant leaves. What would you recommend I spray with or do? Haven't seen anything like these before.

I've heard one report of squash bugs in Colorado but it is a little early. The eggs on the leaf aren't redish and appear a little smaller than in the link. I've uploaded a photo I just took to my server. Picture is a bit out of focus but it will give you an idea.

I had something very similar that I found under my leaves. I noticed ants eating the tiny black eggs & one bug that was partially formed was a tiny black bug with one wing.
