The nice late start zucchini north of the air conditioner had a tiny SVB worm inside a leaf's stem!!
While inspecting the plant I noticed some moist green bits on a leaf stem, down low close to the main "vine". So I wiped the most bits away and felt the stem, and it was soft there, and it collapsed under my pressure. So, I used scissors to cut the leaf off. Sure enough, there was a tiny SVB worm right near the hole.
It begins......... the clock is ticking.
Also, around 7:30pm while watering the garden I found a SVB moth hanging around down in the central squash patch.
