I've got Eight (permethrin) and Triazide (lambda-cyhalothrin)as my current options. Anyone know which is more effective on squash bugs (AKA: stink bugs) which are totally different from Squash Vine Borer. The trick with the board on the ground works great (they huddle underneath at night and are squashed by me in the morning), but I'd like to get 100% via chemical annihilation.

Of the two, I would select the Triazicide. Though Asana is the best. It is a restricted use pesticide though.
