Hop aphids?

Post by Derek »

Last year they didn't show up until the end of the season. I disposed of the worst plants, but harvest the rest of the cones & just let them crawl out & die while they were drying.

This year they're already going crazy. No cones yet, so I think I'll try spraying with soap, maybe insecticidal if it doesn't work.

Anyone have any success stories?
