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.

to early for squash bugs in Colorado isn't it?,,, do the eggs look similar to these?

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.
