I had these so bad the last time I grew squash that I chose not to grow any squash last year. I'm hoping that not finding any food last year will reduce how many adults come back this year. I also heard that another way to get rid of the eggs without damaging the leaf is to use a lighter. The eggs will burst instantly if you apply flame to them, but the flame isn't on the leaf long enough to cause damage

I absolutely love your videos and the knowledge you share. You’ve inspired me and helped my confidence in growing and maintaining my garden. I was hoping you were talking about squash vine borers instead. That is my biggest issue here in Zone 9…Houston, Tx. I’m out there at least 3x/day hunting for eggs which are laid at the base and occasionally on the leaf stems. The adults fly quickly and rarely sit still long to be caught. The squash bug you’ve presented here is a problem on my tomatoes and cucumbers. Do you have a solution for the squash vine borers? Would love to know your thoughts about the Robber Fly. I’ve never had an issue with them until this year. Thanks so much.
