I have melons, cucumbers, lemon basil, peppers, squash...and plenty of bugs! I don't use pesticides. My hubby keeps his chemicals out of my garden fence. And there are plenty of cherry tomatoes that fall to the ground I wouldn't mind them cleaning up for me. I don't mind losing a couple tomatoes if they can combat the dreaded squash beetle. And those little bugs that look similar to skinny lady bugs with orange or yellow color who seem to love the cucumber plant
