Default duckweed - aphid killer

If you find just one plant, put it in a separate container. I bring in very
little an over winter. It just kinds of sits there than takes off once it's
outside again. There is a down side to duck weed. It is extemely hard to
eradicate aphids from your pond with it around.

Has anyone tried that herbal aphid killer that is safe for ponds? I've got
aphids on the lotus pads and they are not as easy to work with as lily
pads, tend to tear easily. ~ jan
