Ants and stink bugs are attacking the main stem of my big pumpkins. They burrow in and the stem starts oozing and then they cut the stem off. I used Sevin dust but can't get it locally right now so switched to Sevin liquid and Sevin granular but not much luck. How often should I reapply? Anything else I should be trying?

Porkchop, when you apply the Bayer T&S every 3 weeks, do you foliar apply it or do you drench apply it?
