squash bugs

10 years ago

Was looking for a way to get rid of squash bugs. I think this just might work. They said to use duct tape to remove the eggs. And she also stuck the adults when she saw them too. Think that would be better than trying to scrape them with your fingernail and not lose them. Sad when you get excited about a way to kill a bug!!
