Identify aphids

What do aphids look like?

Aphids are tiny insects that feed on plant sap, causing damage to leaves, stems, and buds. They reproduce rapidly, forming large colonies on plants and attracting ants with their sweet honeydew secretions. Aphids can weaken plants and make them more susceptible to other pests and diseases. Limiting aphid infestations involves promoting plant health, using natural predators, and practicing good garden hygiene. Prompt identification and treatment are important to protect your plants from the damaging effects of aphids.
