Default Squash vine borers

Of course, crop rotation is another option.


We have two vegetable gardens several hundred feet apart. Everything is
rotated but the greens. The borers found the squash. A neighbor suggested we
cover them with screening but the cost is too much. The soil is rich with
compost and the plants get huge.
