My Bearded Dragon ate some squash bugs this morning.
Squash them
Companion planting, litter removal, natural enemies, and row covers keep squash bugs (Anasa tristis) from entering gardens. Squash bugs will not like gardens bordered by bee balm, catnip, nasturtiums, marigolds, mint, radishes, and tansies or frequented by beneficial insects.

I had squash bugs 2 years ago, that destroyed my pumpkins,zucchini, and cucumbers. I moved the bed the next year and plantednasturtiums all around the squash plants. Haven't seen a squash bug since.How well they work with an active infestation, I don't know. I just know I haven't seen one since I started companion planting with nasturtiums.
malathion is an evil warlock, he could do just about anything
.I found a bunch of them on my moms squash leaves and when I caught them they went strait for the leaves so I'm guessing they eat squash, and squash leaves. Oh,and another thing is that they have desame odor as stink bugs and you will notice that the edge of your squash will start to wilt in a yellowish color. Hope it helps!
