Yes, Sevin kills squash bugs. The pesticide in question numbers among standard controls for garden pests such as squash bugs (Coreidae family) that otherwise tend to be insecticide-resistant. It operates most effectively as a spray when the reddened eggs are deposited and then again 10 to 14 days later at plant bases where the insect pests in question shelter from the and from the sun.

Squash bugs are not susceptible to Bt, so using Thuricide will not kill them. For managing squash bugs, other insecticides or organic methods, such as neem oil or insecticidal soap, may be more effective.

Does Sevin insecticide kill stink bugs?

Yes. I have used it several times both on my garden and on my house to kill stink bugs (brown marmorated stinkers). My only concern was my pets and my daughter, which I kept away from the sprayed areas for 2 days after spraying. I always did it at dusk so as to minimize the danger to honey/bumble bees as it will kill them, and most every other insect. read the directions carefully and don't spray too much.
