Colorado potato beetles: Finding larva in the potato patch that I covered late; removing by hand. Haven't found any at all in the other potato patch that I covered from day one. Haven't found any on tomatoes yet but neighbours have.
Cucumber beetles: Most of my squash is still tulled, but for the untulled ones they are definitely there. And one of the tulled ones wasn't secure and had a bunch.
Squash bugs: Found a pair mating on the outside of tulle over a squash! Other than than haven't seen any, nor eggs yet on the two uncovered.
Three-lined potato beetle: Surprisingly I've found hardly any eggs on the ground cherries so far, so stopped looking and will instead just look for larvae.
I think that's it so far. No sign of the japanese beetle yet, but I'm sure it won't be long now...
So, so far it's been very manageable, nothing scary yet. The scary part will come when more/all of the squash is uncovered......
