I live in southern minnesota and this is my 3rd year of growing AG,what do these svbs look like and how big are they?.At the start of the season I sprayed Bayer complete kill t&s on my AG`s only and once again about 2 weeks ago .I have no sign of boring that I have found yet but I have a few other issues that I am addressing.I got the bayer for ten bucks each and its a spray on that attaches to my garden hose and mixes its self as you spray.The directions say it last 90 days.have a nice weekend

The moth is about an inch with redish wings. Its not so much the moth that does the damage but the eggs that develop into maggots. The maggots eat into the vine and it rots pretty fast. I'm also spraying with Bayer and liking the results. I wonder can you spray Bayer too often? My last spraying I saw a dead adult squash bug and svb on my leaves. I'm thinking of using it every two weeks.
