OK, so I know the black dotted beetle is a cucumber beetle, but what is the yellow dotted one? Is it just an immature cucumber beetle or something different altogether? Both are on everything from roses, hibiscus, tomato, beans, and fruit trees.

Both look like cucumber beetles to me.

Sevin, Mustang Max, Malathion, Pounce, Baythroid, Warrior, Asana, Brigade, Capture, or Provado.
Pretty much any pyrethroid. Just need to look at label to make sure that your follow the harvest interval after you spray.

Thanks. I have some 10% permethrin and some malathion too.
