    Get rid of Squash Beetles
    I had squash beetles in the garden last year and it appears they've waited for the new season. My squash and zuchinni were demolished very quickly. They seem to be growing in numbers.

    Is there something I can do to kill these beetles that won't hurt the earthworms and other "good" insects in the garden?

    Also, now that I've pulled my squash and zuchinni, it appears they may be migrating toward the tomatoes. There must be a solution for these critters!
