Squash vine borer will be a problem... plan on that.
Daenna, The flower really is a bit more maroon than the photo. I had to change the apeture on my camera to even get a good picture of it....
I don't think it is a cicada killer... their abdomens are narrower and have whit on them.. not marked like the yellow jacket looking thing I...
