The best thing I have found was to rotate my crop. Put as much space as
you can between this years and last years plantings.

Next, buy and grow squash that are more resisistant to squash bugs and
borers. Yellow and zucchini are the first to go. Butternut and other
winter are the last.

Zucchini and crooknecks are our favorites and excellent for those on low
carb diets. Butternuts are not low carb and aren't ready until the fall.
They're also so cheap here they're hardly worth the garden space when space
is limited.


Last, plant a couple rows of sacrificial squash as early in the spring as
you can, and a month or so later (depending upon where you live), the ones
you want to keep for yourself.

Now that's an idea. Thanks............


Good luck. Dwayne

What are you guys doing for Squash Vine Borers? Sevin dust and the
organics don't work anymore for us.
