Sew their mouths shut. Then they'll starve to death ...


You can try a mild, weak soap solution and spray it on, or you can use a systemic poison that you water into the soil; the roots absorb the poison, and the aphids suck it out.
Aphids hate garlic. Put some crushed galic in some water in a spray bottle and spray away. This always worked on my rose plants.
Try mixing a cigarette with the water in your spray bottle. This has worked for me against spider mites. just tear the filter off and let it soak in the bottle overnight.
Ladybugs!!!! They eat aphids.
