I don't grow veggies, but my neighbour does. She plants melons on top of a heap of compost so that they can scramble down happily. This heap is about one metre away from other plants. I don't know about Squash, she doesn't grow that, but Cucumbers are across the other side of her patch with runner beans in between. I will try to see her and ask why but that is what an experienced gardener has done. Hope it helps a bit.
