What causes aphids infestations?

Aphid infestations are caused by the presence of plants and suitable environmental conditions. Aphids are attracted to new plant growth and feed on plant sap. Warm temperatures and high humidity levels can promote aphid infestations in gardens and landscapes. Poor garden maintenance, such as overgrown plants and weeds, can contribute to aphid problems by providing abundant food and hiding places.

How do I get rid of an aphids infestation?

To get rid of an aphid infestation, start by inspecting your plants regularly and removing aphids by hand or using a strong stream of water to dislodge them. Introduce beneficial insects like ladybugs or lacewings, which are natural predators of aphids. Apply insecticidal soaps or horticultural oils to the affected plants, ensuring thorough coverage of all plant surfaces. Prune heavily infested areas of plants and dispose of the cuttings properly. Encourage healthy plant growth through proper watering, fertilization, and care. Use reflective mulches or yellow sticky traps to reduce aphid populations. If the infestation persists, consider contacting Aptive for a targeted pest management plan that includes ongoing monitoring and preventive measures to keep aphids under control. Maintaining a healthy garden ecosystem with diverse plant species can also help reduce the likelihood of aphid infestations.
