Attack of the stinkbugs!

[daddys3chicks]

Stinkbugs have attacked my garden! They have demolished my squash plants. What can I do to get rid of them??? I sprayed them with soapy water, but there are TONS of the ugly little critters.

UGH I hate bugs!!!!!

I posted this question at the Homestead Garden and got no responses.

An internet search told me to put boards down near the infested areas and the bugs would hide under the boards at night, then you are supposed to scrape the bugs into a bucket of bleachy water (weak solution). Unfortunately the bugs in my garden don't know they are supposed to get ON the board so they are still there.

Also the internet search says to eliminate all cover they are using --- like mulch --- and to remove the plants they are infesting. I haven't done that yet --- I'm still hoping I can get some more zucchini --- I guess its a futile hope though.

Good luck. If you manage to get rid of them, please post here --- I'd love to know something that works!
