MaryE said:No, it's definitely a squash bug. This one doesn't like any other kind of plant, and is smaller than the leaf footed hopper. It doesn't hop, just crawls, so they are easy to catch. When squished, they give off a sharp, unpleasant smell. So, into the jug of water they go. I'll be on the hunt for them every day for the next few months.
