These are eggs of squash bugs (see your previous post). I patrol our squash patch on a daily basis, picking off and crushing all egg masses that I find. This helps keep their population down to reasonable levels without resorting to chemical spray.

Thanks again! I figured they might have something to do with the previous bugs, but just in case, put them in a sep thread.
