Yeah I noticed one of those cuke beetles on one of my sunflower's today after I posted here about the SVB. Haven't seen them around for two years in my patch. Warrior was today's menu special for the guests.

Haven't seen any SVB moths yet, but I do have a problem in my garden.

There is a spot on my main vine, that looks rotted with a bunch of yellow wet sawdusty looking mold on it.

Past the rotted spot the whole plant is wilted.

Here is a couple pictures:
