[QUOTE="WTM, post: 4239468, member: 6230"] if they are squash bugs like in the pic they will be there all summer. when fall comes the adults will try to find something to hide under for winter. this is where garden cleanup is important. till mulch or hay into soil or remove it along with any other garden debris. this is where the boards i menioned come in handy, as you can catch about all of them before winter and have less problems wih them next season. keep vigilant and pick off any adults you find and scrape the eggs off from undersides of the leaves. vine borer i think has only one cycle. the moth emerges from the cocoon from where the squash were planted then lays 1-3 eggs at the bas of the plant. larvae hatches and bores into the stem and lives there until its ready to cocoon into the soil again for next year.
