I would like to ask my fellow gourd growers, who are so much more knowledgable about gourds and their problems than I, for help!

Can anyone tell from these pictures what is wrong with them? My bottleneck gourd plant only has the one gourd on it and it didn't get very large at all, it seems to have stopped growing. Now there are these critters and what appears to be a powdery stuff on the leaves of both my bottleneck and birdhouse gourds. UGHHHHHHHHH Please, can anyone tell me what to do for my poor babies!

The birdhouse has about a dozen gourds on it and I really don't want to loose them.

Thanks all,
Annie & Mike
