I have a friend who uses flour, white flour to kill off squash bugs. I’d never heard of it before, and we’ve lost some squash plants to the bugs. He just sprinkles white flour on the squash, beans, tomatoes. He doesn’t really know if it does any good, but his mother told him to to it, and he doesn’t have squash bugs. I’ll try it next year.
