I am facing a real problem with these damn leaf miners. Last year they were
no problem but this year they are possibly going to wipe out all by
cucumbers and squash. I applied Spinosad in hope of abating the problem.
Is this stuff effective?

It's from Dow Chemical and kills bees.

No bees at this time. I'm only applying it to affected plants and they have
no blossoms yet.
