Ladybugs!!! They love aphids like I love chocolate!😏
you must have ants going up and down, farming the aphids. Spray any ants and the base of the plants with vinegar/some water and a little of dishwash liquid. Spray the aphids after that. Keep checking and repeat when necessary
Non anti bacterial liquid dish soap with a citrus fragrance. It's safe for your food if washed well before eating. My outdoor plants get a half cup detergent to ten gallons of water when using a sprayer attached to a hose. Indoor plants- I used Murphys' Oil Soap diluted half teaspoon to a gallon of water. Wait til it's time to water them. Be sure to get the undersides of the leaves.
Hi Sylvia, Here's a link that may help! http://www.almanac.com/pest/aphids
Good luck!
Find a camel cigarette. Or biodegradable filter, even though you don't use it. Soak the cigarette in water. I threw mine I a water bottle, forgot of it. Haha but after a week, looked like chunky (not the good chunks) . I made a gallon of water with the strained tabacco water, you'll clog the spray bottle hose. If you don't smoke, hell if you do. That marinated tobacco water, smells like gross but will kill aphids on most plants. Even tomatoes despite the cigarette smoke, nicotine on fingers will kill them? Good luck.
