            | Pumpkin_man1 |  | Hello, The other day I was cutting off male flowers off of my plant and noticed a cucumber beetle that was on the pollen inside the bloom dead. Should I spray my whole plant with sevin or not worry about it? I have not used any kind of insecticide and have not seen any other type of insect. I do have aphids on my tomatoes that I sprayed with sevin that is the only insect I have had a problem with.
 I appreciate it
