About to plant some squash in my raised beds here in central Texas. Last time I had squash I had a serious problem with vine borers. I am wondering if anyone has any tips as to how to avoid them or keep them away, or what plants would possibly deter them? Thanks in advance!


David the good on you tube suggests to bury vines in different places like halfway mark on a vine so it puts roots and if something happens to the main plant it will not affect from where you buried it and beyond. It made sense to me. I hope it helps someone. I have never tried it as I have never encountered the vine borer.
