Aphids on my roses
This spring I have been amazed at the size of the aphids invading my roses, Some of them are almost the size of elephants, ha ha not really, but they are the largest I have seen. I have tried all the home remedies and to no avail, I have tried to squash them in my fingers, just had a green mess on my fingers, I haven't been able to eradicate them. I was hoping the severe winds we have had over the past week would have sent them on their way, no, they are back in full force this morning. This morning I have attacked them with white oil in an attempt to get them under control. This infestation of aphids is not only here, I also noticed my in-laws roses were infested as well and they are interstate. I am hoping this spray will be the last time I have to attack them. Fingers crossed.
