The War of the Roses

I discovered aphids crawling on the roses the other day! This upset me. Aphids are bad. I don't know how they ended up on a second story deck far from any flowers. I think they came in with some other flowers we were given. I discovered them on the double delight, and soon they were found on the other two bushes as well.

In the words of the great philosopher, Bugs Bunny, "This, means war."

Hey there... I had a war with some ants in my appartment just recently. It got pretty nasty. They would storm the counter of my kitchen, I would wipe them up with a sponge and flush them down the drain, A few wound up in the dishwasher with my dishes (what a way to go). Finally, I put down some traps and they all died out but now I'm seeing a few scouts around the apartment again. They are persistant. Anyway, hope your aphids go away soon... have a great day...
