I usually find that sauteing my squash plants with a bit of garlic clears up all grub problems.

Grubs and squash:

Any help would be appreciated but I won't use chemicals.

Yes, use them as aderezo (spices) so cook them together, they are yummie...

Like gusanos (worms) in Mezcal (fire water from Oaxaca)
