Anyone got any tips on getting rid of cucumber beetles? These guys are really messing up my cucumbers and zucchini. I’ve been using diatomaceous earth which works for some of the beetles on the leaves and flowers but I really need another solution.

I came here to ask this. They are demolishing my entire garden!! Well my squash and cucumbers. I’m using neem oil and they keep coming back

Neem oil, in a sprayer diluted with water will get you back on track 😛 Neem oil is cold pressed from the berries of said plant. Perfectly organic!
