Well, I am bummed! Its official, my eight ball zuchinni and patty pan squash have the borer :(
This is the first time I have ever tried to grow plants from this family...They are still producing, but I am not sure for how much longer. I have now researched some organic methods of control, but I am afraid it may be too late. I have been reading a book about companion planting and I hope that implementing this next year will sugnifigantly help this issue.

Same as mine too :(. Last year we had zucchini coming out of our ears. Maybe next year and if we try some different things the outcome will be better. |
