    Jackie, This is a great capture of their colony. One plant that seems to not be bothered by their presence. ;>)

      I’ve sprayed them with a hose everyday for the past four days and they are a lot less of them now. Hoping ladybugs will show up soon for a feast.

    Nice capture. We need a macro of the Lady Bug munching down on them. I’ve got plenty (aphids) over here on my MW too.
