Aphids

===Aphids love to snack on vegetables in your garden and flowers on your front porch. They even get on house plants. Their bodies are tiny and pear-shaped. Aphids come in several colors, such as green, pink, black or gray. These pests will suck the sap out of your plants and cause them to be stunted and distorted. They also secrete a sticky substance that causes mold to grow on your plants. Aphids are easy to control organically. A strong stream of water will knock them off your plants. Insecticidal soap can also be used. If there are ants close by, these should also be eradicated as ant colonies support aphids.===
