They are little worms that get in the cucumbers and in the stems,
killing the stems and boring holes all through the fingerlings. What
are they do and what I do to get rid of them, and what do they look
like as adults?
My first guess would be cucumber beetles. [the larva feed on stems &
roots]

My vote for control is an insecticide that lists cucumber beetle as a
species it kills applied as the package directs.
