Squash Mosaic Virus

Symptoms:

Green and yellow curled leaves; warty, misshapen and spotted fruits. Aphids spread virus to squash plants. Also attacks cucumber, pepper, tomato and melon plants.

Solutions:

Spray regularly with a horticultural oil or pyrethrins to control aphids. Start as soon as plants are aboveground; once virus has infected the plant, it is too late. We recommend Oil- Away™ Supreme Insecticidal Spray and Pyola® Insect Spray.
