Squash vine borers are problem here too. Squash bugs are an even bigger problem.

With the borers, as Worth replied, foil helps. A TP or paper towel roll helps. I've used water hose too. All of them work for the most part.

Squash bugs are different story though. I've used all kinds of organic miracle cures...didn't work. Soapy water...didn't work well enough. Malathion...waste of time and effort. The only thing I've found that gets rid of squash bugs is a match and a gallon of gas.
