Squash bugs on yard long beans?

ChristinaJo · July 21, 2016

I seem to have a bunch of these things on my Asian beans but none on my squash plants that are in the very next bed. What the heck! They freak me out and fly everywhere when I pick beans.....ew! Anybody else have this problem?

Stink bugs. Pick them off and squish or drown.

I get them to drop into a cup of soapy water. You get the hang of it quickly!

I run and scream like a wimpy girl when they fly at me! I will try and be brave. Thank you.
