Pickle Worms and Melon Worms are the garden pests that I despise the most. They can and do destroy my zucchini, squash and cucumbers quickly if I don’t prevent them from infesting my plants. I accept most bugs as being part of my garden ecosystem and I mainly focus on trying to attract beneficial insects to my garden. Predatory insects will often kill the bad bugs if there are enough of them present, but some insect pests don’t have enough predators to suppress them. I try not to use any pesticides in my garden - even organic ones, because I don’t want to harm the beneficial insects or predatory insects. However, I do use organic pesticides to control Pickle Worms and Melon Worms because predatory insects and animals have not kept them under control, and they relentlessly attack plants in the squash family. Summer squash is their preferred host plant. In this video I talk about the organic methods I have used to stop pickle worms and melon worms from destroying my plants.
