# This is the most DISGUSTING thing I’ve seen on my plants!! Freakin…

_Postat av Lala, Dr. Greenthumb den 2025-06-07_

This is the most DISGUSTING thing I’ve seen on my plants!! Freakin aphids eww! I hosed them down violently (\*while yelling in horror of course\*) followed by an hour session of neem oil to EVERY SINGLE LEAF 😮‍💨🤞🏼 My Apple tree was growing all weird and had a lot of yellowing leaves so I went to check it and I saw a bunch of black ants… and I remembered 💡they eat the honeydew from the aphids. So I flipped a leaf to verify my suspicions and ohhhhh lorddddd….. 🤢… sheesh!! They remind me of ticks 🤮. Anyways, Here are the repulsive images for your amusement.

I hate how they cluster together like that 🤢

They seriously gross me out. Despicable little sh\*ts 🤮

Thanks for sharing! As much as I don’t like them on my plants, I’m always fascinated by those little guys😳

#### Lala, Dr. Greenthumb svarade den 2025-06-07

Well. I sent them all the way back to hell. 😌✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

ERADICATE THAT VERMIN

#### Lala, Dr. Greenthumb svarade den 2025-06-07

😝 I thought you were talking about my ex for a quick second there. 🤪

#### Sharon svarade den 2025-06-08

Better idea: ERADICATE BOTH

I suggest finding a praying mantis or a few ladybugs and putting them on the plant. They eat aphids and in my experience are very effective at clearing them out. You can even buy them from nurseries and butterfly farms. About 6 wild ladybugs were able to completely clear my veggie garden in a day

Ohhhh thank you for the tips!  
I’ll try lady bugs. Praying mantis are yucky 😌✨✨✨✨
