I haven't seen one at my house yet Ned, but I've done a very good job keeping their populations down the last couple of years. Over the weekend, I was at a nursery that had cuke beetles all over the cucurbits they had out for sale. Before I left there to come home, I stripped down and left my clothes there to make sure I didn't have any hitchhikers. I don't think they want me to come back.

There is no such thing as a PA cuke beetle. There are only Ohio cuke beetles that have gotten lost.

I took my hoop houses off today in Ontario and within a couple hours the cuke beetles were moving in.
