These small, soft-bodied insects often sit gathered in colonies on new shoots, young leaves, flower buds, and on the undersides of leaves, where they suck plant sap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the first signs of aphids is often curled, rolled, or deformed leaves and new shoots. In cases of severe infestation, the plant's growth may be stunted, and flower buds and new shoots may develop poorly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAphids also secrete a sugary liquid called honeydew. Therefore, leaves and stems may feel unusually sticky. Over time, a dark coating of sooty mold can grow on the honeydew. Many ants on a plant can also be a sign of aphids, as ants are attracted to the honeydew and often actively protect the aphid colonies from their natural enemies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAphids can be green, black, brown, reddish, or almost white, depending on the species and developmental stage. Most are only a few millimeters long. If you see small groups of soft insects gathered closely around the plant's fresh growth, there is good reason to examine the plant more closely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTypical signs of aphids are:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eColonies of small aphids on new shoots and the undersides of leaves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCurled, deformed, or rolled leaves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eWeakened or deformed new shoots and flower buds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eSticky leaves and stems due to honeydew\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eBlack sooty mold on leaves with heavy honeydew\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eMany ants moving up and down the plant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe earlier an aphid infestation is discovered, the easier it is to get under control with beneficial insects.
