I finally made it into my patch last night, found it infested with squash bugs esp around the center stump area on two back to back plants. Lots of adult and eggs. I sprayed with sevin, but have since read that triazicide may be a better choice. If I sprayed with sevin last night, can I spray with triazicide tonight without hurting the plants? Will it kill the eggs? I finally got 1 punk to set (too hot!) and now this! Will they recover?? Thanks, B

If you put in Large smelly marigolds at the beginning of the season, you won't see any or few squash bugs. I never see any and I definitely have them in the area. Kathy
