Thank you very much for this info. I have tried Sevendust (powder and spray) and it has not worked. I have thousands of squash bugs this year. It is amazing how many there are. I am going to try dishsoap right now.
Thanks again!!

Thank YOU so much for the advise… Seven Dust just wasnt killing them and It was getting quite expensive. THANKS again, appreciate it.

I’m glad it worked for you. I never saw plant damage from soap. But if you get concerned about it, you could wash them off by spraying some clean water over the plants to remove the soap. I hope your garden produces good fruit.

I went outside after watching this and sprayed a couple of beetles. They died instantly. Thank you! A little Dawn and some water did the trick. Hope the plants are OK.
