Geurra under attack

Can you see that these are aphids? They are covering every flower stem on the Geurra. The white bits are skeletons they have shed as they grow. I hope the plant will survive. We sprayed with dish soap this morning. Hopefully that will help.

Dish soap does help. Fingers crossed!

My goodness, that some invasion.

[Lesley]

Wow, that’s amazing. I hope it survives too.

[Beryl Lloyd]

What an infestation, I am sure your soapy spray will kill the little aphids before they suck all the strength out of the plant !

[Kathy]

Sorry to see this. Aphids can be brutal and any insects are difficult to remove when one is trying to be Earth friendly. Good close up.

[Babs]

Wow that is quite an invasion.

[Islandgirl]

Nice focus!

[Annie-Sue]

[Mags]

Yikes! Yes, Dawn dish soap seems to work!

[Pat]

Oh gosh, it’s well covered! Hope the soapy water does the trick.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Yikes! Where are all the ladybugs when you need them?!

[Shutterbug]

@olivetreeann Hopefully the dishsoap won’t hurt the ladies. I haven’t seen any yet this year.

[Diana]

Omw, I have never seen so many, hope you can get rid of them!

[Wylie]

Grr, nasty little things.

[haskar]

Great close up.

[Rob Z]

Gosh - that's a real invasion. I hope the soapy water does the job.

[Valerie Chesney]

Oh! Oh! Hope the soapy spray works for you.
