I have aphids on the maters. Arrrg. Soap solution is not working. Tonight I applied diatomaceous earth.
Any more ideas other than leaf by leaf scaping the little buggers off.

If your'e trying to stay organic, neem is probably your next option. If you really want to knock them out,Azatin xl.

The diatamaceous seems to have cut the population by 50% or better in 24 hours. I hit them again tonight.
Tomorrow morning the sprinklers will come on for the first time. Hopefully that will help also.

Well, before you put the DE down I would say ladybugs. They’re the best organic way to knock down aphids I’ve found, but DE will kill them too. IDK if there’s a way to get rid of the DE or not.
