Is everybody noticing gazillions of aphids this spring?!
I spend about an hour walking around squishing the stinkers with my fingers every day!

They first came out about 3 weeks ago, and I put out the ladybugs at night. Maybe it was still too cold, but they took off first thing!!
Then I tried spraying them with the hose, applying soapy water, but now I'm just squishing, and squishing !

My fingers are permanently brown from it!!!

Do you all have them too, or what brings them here?

Some help would cheer me up!
