just a quick report - I've been using Marie's pickling lime mix on the
squash bugs and it just might be helping - I see much less activity after
two days and am continuing to hit them as soon as I see the nymphs! I had
decided that I couldn't spray anything this year because we have so many
toads in the gardens and I can't stand to lose them but then the squash bugs
get so bad and we've only gotten a few squash so far - don't know how the
lime will affect toads - I only use it directly on the bugs.
