What do you guys use for pest prevention? I have some absolutely beautiful squash plants, both zucchini and yellow summer squash. Every year, before I spot them, the squash bugs, which look like stink bugs, get to my squash plants and apparently spread a disease that wipes them out. I usually get some squash, and some years I get lots of squash, but the bugs always win in the end. I don't like to use Sevin on the developing fruits, so I'd like to find something that discourages the buggers before they bite. By the time I see them they seem to have already done the squash plants enough damage to kill them. Would the soap spray, with garlic or pepper, or both, be any good for that, and is there any danger as to when you apply it?
