Squash Bug Management
If you grow squash in a veggie garden, you will be familiar with squash bugs. Nothing can cause quite the devastation to a squash patch like these insects.
I recently discovered an infestation in my crop of squash and it was too late for me to manage it. We had been having visitors from the UK and I was not in my garden as much as normal and I paid the price.
I've written an article showing how to deal with the problem of squash bugs. Prompt attention is one of the keys to control.
Fortunately, there is enough time to replant and my new seedlings are growing well. You can be sure I will be out there monitoring the patch closely this time!

Wish I could have chickens @Eddy I'm in the city limits and they are not allowed. I finally dug up all the infested ones and replanted. So far, so good!
