The damage continues with my cucumber and squash plants. Holes on about 75% of the leaves. I found this bug on a squash plant. Is this the bug causing my damage and how do I get rid of it/them? Thanks.

Squash bug. I Handpick and squish, or drown them in soapy water. Also look for clusters of copper colored eggs on the underside of squash leaves. And little silvery grey baby ones.
