Oh, you don't even need that.
A really strong spray of water will blast them off.
Aphids are SO easy!

Thanks Jeri.

And, btw, if you attract a lot of hummingbirds to your garden, they will eat their weight in aphids and whitefly.

All my hummingbird loving plants are summer blooming. I guess I have to wait for the columbine to flower.

I usually just wipe them off with my fingers and squish them. Some how it's very satisfting to get the little devils.

Jeri,

I had never heard this about Hummers!!! VERY interesting!!

Ronda

In the spring, summer, and fall, we have hoards of hummers here. I can be seduced into spending hours watching them -- and many of them come back year after year.
It's nice that they're useful, as well as beautiful.
One hint: If you make nectar to attract them, keep the sugars on the low side, which will encourage them to seek out aphids and whitefly.
