🤢🤢🤢 no idea but I definitely keep a bottle of pure cold pressed neem oil on hand for mixing up bug venom at any time. You can also use a q tip and wet paper towel to be more surgical about removing every last thing.

Aphids, pest that you can wash off with dish liquid or insecticidal spray. Isolate your plant until you are sure they have been removed or they will spread to other plants.

Thank you!

If you ever need to control aphids outdoors or with minimal/no pesticides, put a ladybug or two on the affected plant. They're very effective. Mantises will also eat them

Aphids lovveeee my outdoor Hoya. Jet blast them with water to remove them and then use a spray to keep them away. Walmart has different safers sprays you can get for cheap.
