Just Bug Killer), when aphids first appear then add beneficials to keep
future ingressions in check.
You sound as if you are posting about American circumstances, is
that right? What pertains or is available in the US often doesn't and
isn't here in the UK. This is, specifically, a UK gardening newsgroup.
Janet.
No this is all available in the UK.
