I don't understand the cucumber beetle lifecycle. Last year I had them. I like to grow squash and cucumbers among other vegetables and for some reason, have never had a problem in over 20 years of growing these plants. Last year I started seeing all kinds of damage and the local extension agent told me what they were. I treated them with some soap and that was that. The other day I started to clean up my garden getting ready to plant and I saw some under some old leaves. How can they be back already? It's early spring and there is no way they have been able to reproduce yet.
