Kaktus said: I still prefer the wet brush method as it is easier to reach into the smallest corner of the plant.

So you also experienced how the aphids only pick one plant? I also experienced that, my best guess is that the aphids knew which is the weakest plant.


Yes! It looks to me like they pick the plants that have fresh leaves or fresh buds. I might have to look tomorrow if other desert roses are infested. It is harder to find when you have too many!
