Thank you for all the suggestions!
they are a real pain to get rid of them or they on your houseplants or out doors plants. if house plants get them away from any of your plants that are near the infested plant or they will get all over those plants. if it if any outdoor plant same thing. you have to use bug spray and go under every leaf and stem and the ground around it because they drop and can move on to the next plants. ask your honest garden center and see what they would tell you your best options. bring of the insects on a couple of leaves to in a sealed plastic bag so they don't infest other plants at the nursery. GOOD LUCK, sorry this is happening to you and your plants.
Get some ladybugs - many nurseries will sell them by the package and you can release them where the aphid problem exists.
Hi Soak 3 cloves of grated garlic in 1 cup of lukewarm water, allow it to soak until the garlic sinks to the bottom, dispense it through a sieve into a spray bottle, add a drop of dishwashing liquid (so it can adhere) and spray your roses / plants. This works as a fungicide as well as insecticide. It will not harm beneficial insects. It works on black spot, aphids, red spider mite and various other infections on roses.
