Our solution to pumpkin bugs

Lately I have heard numerous people commenting on the bugs getting their pumpkins and squash this year.  I realize this is a little late but here is our recipe that we use to get rid of the bugs.

1 Small Onion- finely chopped
2 Medium cloves of Garlic- finely chopped
1 Tbsp. of baby shampoo (We us all natural, so I don’t worry too much about this.)
2 Cups of Water 
      Put everything in to a blender and blend on high for approx. 1 min.  Let sit overnight.  The next day pour mixture through cheese cloth (a coffe filter would work too).  Pour the liquid into a sprayer and apply liberally.

This has worked the last two years for us.  I hope it helps some one else next year.
