bug control

I think my Green Beans are in the clear now; all the new leaves that are growing quickly, are more or less untouched.
Today I only picked one cucumber beetle off the Zucchini, and its new leaves are unmarred as well.
 I'm still not sure if the plants have caught any wilt disease, but learned how to test it and I'm going to do that soon. You cut a leaf off and put the stem in water, if any cloudy white sap leaks out, that's the bacteria of the wilt disease (the natural, plant sap should be clear).
