Aphid management

Aphid management involves controlling these small, sap-sucking insects that can damage plants by feeding on their nutrients. To manage aphids, regularly inspect plants for signs of infestation, such as curled leaves or sticky residue. Introducing natural predators like ladybugs can help reduce aphid populations. Other methods include using insecticidal soaps or horticultural oils that are safe for plants. Maintaining plant health through proper watering and fertilization can also make them less susceptible to aphids. It’s best to combine multiple strategies for effective and sustainable aphid control.
