How do I kill these fuckers? Every time I try they come back in like two days.I brought this plant from another part of the state so if I kill them all they shouldn’t come back
Neem oilBuy some concentrated neem oil (its cheaper than the pre mixed shit) mix it with some water in a spray bottle and generously coat the leaves.
>>475757200Glyphosate and 2-4D, mix whatever it says, or a cup of each if it doesn't, with some liquid soap (just a little) in your sprayer. It is most of the ingredients of Agent Orange.It'll kill most anything.Co-Op or some other farm supply store will have the concentrates. Bring at least $100...maybe 200.
>>475757579This sounds like a better option that diatomaceous earth - the whole point of having milkweed is for the butterflies so I can’t make it permanently hazardous for insects
>>475757200you should burn it and wash your whole room with bleach and everything that touched it
Just wait for winter idiot
>>475758970I’m in California kek
>>475757200Uniroinically, dawn dish soap and water, spritz the stem. They ate my dill plants after it fruited so I just pulled them from the ground because their sprouting was accidental by me, but the dawn soap and water spritz saved my mexican lime
>>475758883You can order ladybugs online. Probably not the most practical, but I mean you get to order ladybugs, and that's cool.
>>475757200if you can control the humidity lower it and dont overfeed the plant.
If you kill them all, then predators won't have anything to eat. A few aphids are fine
>>475758336Do not do what this kike says
the plant is dead already btw
>>475758955>you should burn it and wash your whole room with bleachand everything that touched itThat's for mexicans and bedbugs, those are just aphids anon
>>475758883De is good for killing eggs in the soil. Spray with neembor cedar oil than sprinkle DE on top the of soil to kill any eggs left behind. Spray twice a day for 3 to 4 days.
>>475757200Water and feed the plant properly. Plant a plant whoch attracts ladybugs. Also, you can squish a lot of those guys with your hand. Neem oil will also do the trick
>>475759416red spider too I was just joking the plant look dead already anyway
If you have these things in your home...clean your toilet seat and under it...wash your sheets, dirty mother fucker.
>>475757200bic lighter
I use dr bronners and water for aphids. I think it's safer than dish soap. i've seen leaves stressed out from diluted neem but it works as well.>>475759048how the hell are you getting so many aphids in the middle of a california summer? I only see really see them in the winter
also if the aphids come back too quickly, check there arent ants helping themif there are, get rid of them first
>>475757200safers end all but only apply it in the vegetative phase
>>475759770just get rid of the humanwe didnt make the plant afterall
>>475757200This is /pol/ not /an/plant, bruh.Spray them with soapy water and brush them off. Is that swamp milkweed?
>>475757200ladybugs, but you need good ladybug habitat or theyll leave after they eat them all,looks like milkweed though and i think milkweed aphids are tasty.
>>475757200Can't you spray bugspray on them while reciting Hitler's speeches?
>>475758336>Glyphosatethis turns the frogs gay and causes cancer
>>475757200Consider putting it in brighter sunlight. Maybe repot it and apply some microbial innoculants to the soil. Aphids die immediately if the plant has a high enough sugar content in its leaves. The plant needs sufficient sunlight, water, and good soil microbial activity to make that happen. Aphids are a symptom of a highly unhealthy plant
>>475757200Insecticidal soap, neem oil, or an insecticide with spinosad. There you go, three increasingly strong solutions.
>>475759916Its in his house...Burn the house down
>>475757200Drop a few of these hungry critters on the plant.
>>475758883SouthernAG has the best neem oil in my opinionIt is super concentrated so one bottle will last you a decade if you are a small scale gardener, two cap fulls in a standard spray bottle is plenty then fill it up halfway and shake vigorously to mix and then spray until your plants are coated. It is completely harmless to humans and animals, it is only slightly toxic to fish. It does not cause cancer like glyphosate.
>>475757200Buy a systemic insecticide.https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4UfpfKVOX08
>>475760394They get fat and cant fly. This alone isnt a solution. He should burn his house down.
I'm too lazy to Google what species of aphid that is but if it's incapable of flight maybe add a thin layer of diatomaceous earth around the base of the pot or on the top soil if you can clear them out to prevent another infestation. If they make it through the diatomaceous earth they're dead anyway so unless they're already carrying eggs they shouldn't have time to set up shop.
>>475759318As I’m not a retard, I know what agent orange is
>>475761232its in your daily diet, my nigger.
>>475757200esto es /pol/ hijo de puta madre
>>475757200dishsoap and water.
>>475761498genereally this works but only if there isnt an infestation
>>475757200get some preying mantis
>>475762091They cant eat enough, tell him to burn his house down
>>475762309I digress, I need the depression medIm gonna go smoke some weed
>>475762091or ducks.Ducks love aphids.
>>475757200You have to treat the source of the crabs. Presumably you and your girlfriend are carriers.

>>475762569It would be a better board
Need oil doesn't do anything. If it's something you plan to eat, I can't tell what that plant is, then use insecticidal soap. It literally melts the aphids and is completely safe for people. If it's just decorative, get a systemic, especially bayer 3-in-1 which will easily control it as well.
>>475762713Gardening is highly political. Every time you use an insecticide a puppy dies and a jew makes money. Milkweed requires full sun. Put it outside and the bugs will go away
