I was just out there straying my squash plants and especially the stems with a Neem Garden Product. Saw my first ever Squash Vine Borer Moth today. Unfortunately it got away before I could kill it. I didn't know what it was so had to come inside and Google it. But I just knew that any moth landing and paying that much attention to the stems of my squash was not good. I knew I had to ID it. It came around while I was out there watering which was good because that means I saw it. And it didn't get a chance to lay eggs but who knows when it might come back? Nope. Sprayed with the Neem.
