    They are difficult to get rid of-they come from everywhere and anywhere. One method I use is just to knock them off into a bucket of soapy water-the best time is in the morning or evening when they are less active. The problem with that is others show up and go after your plants. If you are worried about your roses consider covering them with a shade cloth to keep them out.
