Every year in the middle of the summer, I get hit with aphids which attack my squash and string beans. Aphids can not only wipe out some of your vegetable plants, but they are very bad about spreading disease to other plants in your garden.

HGIC - Soy Bean Rust
Soybean rust is a devastating fungal disease of soybeans as well as other garden beans. Although there are other fungal rust diseases capable of attacking beans and peas, the incidence of Asian soybean rust in a Maryland gardener's patch could be an important indicator of the severity of the outbreak and direction the disease is travelling.
