Jan and Gordon, hi! A nice stiff shot of water from a hose will wash aphids
off. Once off, they can't get back on, and this is the best cheapest and
least toxic way to kill aphids I know of. The few that are left will be
gratefully eaten by the local ladybugs and other insect predators.

BLUETTES, today.

Hi All, we have a friend who gets adopted by stray cats, and wants to
know if there is anything that she can use to kill the aphids on her
iris that won't be harmful to the cats that keep resting in her iris
patch.
Any suggestions?
