I have noticed today that all the branches of my rose bush are full of aphids. How can I get rid of them please.
I squish them all with my fingers........I am strange like that but it does work,depends how many you have I guess :)
I'm a squishing advocate too....
spent over half an hour on the solomon's seal today.... ;D
As above, squash them
Use a hose to produce a forceful water spray to knock them off the branches and leaves (they wont make it back up from the ground)
Spray with a washing up liquid solution
Buy or otherwise acquire Ladybirds
Spray with an insecticide like Rose Clear
