Small black bug on chamomile?


Question:It has just started to bloom and there are tiny black bugs appearing. What do I do?

Answers:
You may have aphids - the older adults are brown to black. Check out this site:

On that site, there's a link you can click to take a look at the adult winged insects.

I just found some on my flowers (chrysanthemums) and never realized that aphids were anything but green! Evidently at different stages of life, they're different colors. Goodluck!
