As you can see, it is infested with what I think are squash bugs. The plant is pretty much dead. Most of the leaves have withered and died. I kept the squash bugs under control for awhile using insecticidal soap and Neem oil and destroyed any copper eggs I found on the plant. But, now, nothing is working to keep the bugs at bay. I also don't understand why they are on the squash instead of the leaves. Any advice? |
