WAR declared.
Breakfast and then marching to HD for JackDB.
Returning and spraying.
Above ground (hopefully) aphids, not “root aphids”, I hope.
Hysterical ? not in my world, just another lesson and share opportunity.
Forum contributors, THANK YOU the lessons learned and shared are life-saving.
If available in 1970-80, life would be different today, for sure.

Lots of types of aphids. You show sugarcane aphids. We both stop and did a quick photo search. Whether those are bodies or babies. No matter. Eradicate till you don’t have any more for several weeks to be sure that they’re all dead n gone

I save all useful information or pictures for pursuit of answers, somewhere.
Makes sharing easier (if I can find saved material).
Usually save by date and then again, by topic.

What’s the species of wasp? With my citrus trees, I have lots of European paper wasps that feed on the leaf miners.
I still find the occasional plant where the ants are, farming, aphids, so probably not them🤨
