@JimmyB@gardening I hope that’s the case for you! My husband said his grandmother grew tons of zucchini and never had this problem so I think it’s an expanding problem at last in the US.
@displaced_city_mouse@oSeabass yes, it’s the small rust colored circle. They all look similar so if you get yours eyes trained to see them, they are easier to spot. I have considered not growing zucchini because it’s so time intensive finding and removing the eggs, but the are soooo tasty! Good luck with the pests this year.
@oSeabass sorry for the late reply! I try to make the second picture more obvious but I could circle it. As someone else said, it’s the small rust colored circle near the tie wrap. Hope that helps!
@doomy@gardening ugh! It is a pretty bug but what damage!!! Every year I perform several surgeries to remove the ones that I miss in egg form. But fresh zucchini is just amazing!
