I had a few bushes with them and the ladybugs I bought at Rockledge Gardens handled them. Just split the release on the plants and watched them go to work.

Tried the ladybug method, but, they flew the coop almost immediately. My neighbors probably benefited.

I had that happen when I tried it on the aphids in the butterfly garden I made for my wife. It was windy though. Tried it again on a calmer day and they had all the little yellow aphids on the milkweed gone by the next day. Voracious little guys.
