    They do lay them in the flowers the eggs. Just to let you know that information. But if you use some diatomaceous earth that will also get onto the eggs and hopefully kill them. But that's why you have to be very vigilant every year and go through the yard or go through your soil every year and make sure you get some thing that can kill any of the Dangerous insects. Diatomaceous earth, Nimoy oil, Murphy's oil that you used, stuff like that. I just wanna make sure that I use some thing that is also not going to harm the beneficial insects like lady beetles, butterflies, dragonflies, bumblebees, honeybees, all of those things

  • @jadeswrapsandbraids
    @jadeswrapsandbraids Рік тому

    I am starting to sprinkle diatomaceous earth in the flowers and on the leaves. It sucks to do that because the good insects also get injured in there. But not very many. Versus all the cucumber beetles. I also drowned them when I see them, I will have a cup of water or some thing that is like a bug killer or whatever, and I will see them and I will put them in the water to kill them . This year I am finding that they absolutely love my pumpkin flowers. Heck to the no you're stupid insects

  • @robertscherer963
    @robertscherer963 Рік тому

    You are on the right path, but instead of Murphy's, try some Castillo liquid soap or a natural dish soap mixed with cold pressed Neem Oil. The soap is your leaf glue and the Neem oil renders the infertile and dries them up internally. Spray 2Tbs of Neem and 1tsp soap per gallon in your sprayer. Top and bottom of leaves every 5-7 days til you are happy. This also kills the white flies on the rest of your plants. Do this after the bees have called it a day. It will kill the pollinators if they are subject to wet flowers. You can actually spray the night before harvest. Not a problem, just wash your veggies, since Neem oil comes from a Neem tree....all natural, not manufactured. * It must be cold pressed Neem, not the stuff from the big box store. You can order it on line, or Amazon.

    I m a rookie at 62, Lol . Doing research, checking plants. Squash ( zucchini, acorn , butternut, summer) I was a late getting started, got out for the wild turkey in Virginia.April, to knee replacement in early May. Few other family issues, all I can say is through everything alot of chairs. I picked up the seedling from down the street. Couldn't find a few thing then I had saved some 2 years ago for acorn and butternut ,planted seeds an wella. Started of checking plant for pests early, I killed a vine bore bug, 2 of the squash bugs, and roughly 5 of the cucumber beetles. Now I hadn t run across the cucumber beetle I just saw them and the sixth sense said they can t be good. I killed another squash bug today. I know, long story short I barrier all the root systems with dirt, all squash, Mellon cucumbers, etc then put coffee grounds on base of plants on the mound of dirt. I haven t had Any issues with any of the squash., the cucumbers and melons I was a little beside on and did the same to them. Knock on wood. I found a cluster of eggs on one of my cucumbers today. They have coffee grounds on the soon till then have to check them. I can honestly Say I never knew gardening is very involved, I planted it to save money and for my finances mother with be 91 soon, and she's coming home from rehab tomorrow she ll be quite excited. The garden is her thing has been all her life so, have everything primarily caught up , for her welcome home. Sorry for the BOOK, got caught in the moment , doing ,listening, seeing the tricks of the trade. I always thought you plant the seeds , water and fertilize, and control weeds. All I can say is Wow. So many people on the net is endlessly overwhelming. Lol

    I always thought aphids were the spawn if satan! I know that if you see ants on your plants you most likely have aphids. They eat their sugary 💩. It's pretty crazy that they use them for a sweet food source,even taking the aphids underground to eat the roots . The ants 🐜 will "milk" the aphids for their 💩.

  • @papillondogs4297
    @papillondogs4297 2 роки тому

    Please consider the effects on the environment when using chemicals. Cucumber beetles are easy to pick off early in the morning when they are sluggish. They like to hide in flowers and leaf bracts. Use long thin tweezers and grab them and put them in some soapy water. 10 minutes will get you dozens! Spraying with soap is only effective if the animal is directly hit with the soap, and the residue is not good for soil health. Using sticky traps works, but also traps your beneficial insects.

Because I'm totally being inundated. And I've got a neighbor with Beehives that I absolutely adore. I've been using neem oil after 9 p.m. doesn't seem to be helping much.

      I wish I could give you a true update! We unfortunately had to move last winter unexpectedly to a place that I can’t have a garden :( hence the lack of content this year! I did find that the population did get less and less as the year went on, which some things I read said there can be a second wave in the fall. I found the neem was fine but felt the Murphy oil soap was better. I usually mixed them together. Best of luck to you!!

  • @zprince4120
    @zprince4120 3 роки тому

    I've actually observed that they lay eggs in the flowers and when the flowers drop off the plants the eggs will hatch and the larvae will eat the rest of the bloom then eat away at the roots and base of your plants. So make sure to pick up the dead blossoms off the ground.

      @@notagreenthumb4775 I've never read about before either... I figured it out last year when I had a lemon cucumber growing in a large container and it was heavily attacked by them. What made me start to wonder was that I would pick up the dead blossoms and find two adults on top of each other inside of it. I then started to check the flowers and found a few with tiny little white worms (larvae) I also found that I could bate the larvae out of the soil with a under pollinated cucumber and then throw them out. Now I look back and wonder if I could've injected it with BT. Hopefully I'll never have to.
