◉ Regularly check for signs of aphids to catch an infestation early. ◉ Remove or spray off as many aphids as possible. Consider moving the plants outside and using a power sprayer to dislodge the bugs. Remove heavily infected leaves and buds. ◉ Use insecticidal soaps or fatty acid salts to weaken the outer shell of aphids. Ensure thorough coverage and follow-up applications if necessary. ◉ Neem Oil can be effective against aphids but should not come into contact with buds due to its unpleasant taste/smell. Use with caution as it may be harmful to humans. ◉ Spinosad products, safe and organic, can be sprayed directly on aphids to kill them. They are less toxic to beneficial insects and spiders. ◉ Introduce beneficial insects like lady beetles, ladybugs, and lacewings, which prey on aphids. However, their impact may not be sufficient if the infestation is already established. ◉ Control ants if present since they may tend to aphids and worsen the aphid problem.
