    Yep those are aphids. If it's an outdoor plant, find some ladybugs or a mantis and put them on the affected plant (you'd be surprised how effective ladybugs are; a batch of 5 can clear out a fairly large garden bed.) If it's an indoor plant, neem oil should work (unless you enjoy having ladybugs inside)

      Greetings! Out of interest, can neem oil also be used for mealy bugs? I’ve got a very early infestation and I’ve been advised to get chemicals to treat it that aren’t for sale here in Canada. Neem oil is. Do you also recommend it for mealy bugs? TIA 😃

      It should work on mealys. Those can also be killed by wetting a q-tip with isopropyl alcohol and touching it to the insects
