Answers:
ugh aphids. dont worry of all the bugs u could have gotten, aphids are the best of the worst. i had them on my trumpet vine this year, and i sprayed them with a weak dishsoap and water solution. also spraying them with the garden hose and rubbing them off can help
Warm water mixed with garlic juice (quite strong) in a spray bottle, and spray the little buggers. They're called aphids, and they do wreck your plants. I find that they just don't like garlic!!
try seven dust been a round for yrs can get it at some walmart
Dust your plants with Blood meal. You should be able to get it at Walmart...
sevin dust is great.. just make sure that you wash your food well before using it.. you can make up a batch of hot pepper spray..puree some HOT peppers add water and spray..not only will it keep bugs off it will keep animals away as well..deer dogs moles etc.
