great picture of a real pest
August 19th, 2010 at 1:45 pmI had a total wipe out of my squash plants
they seem to eat the squash also
I did not use pesticides and am concerned about the many that may appear next year because of it
is there anything I can do at this point?
thanks in advance for the help

Handpicking or vacuuming is an option. Try spinosad organic insecticide.
