I know it’s weird to think about, but you can buy them online, too. Just make absolutely sure you are home when they’re delivered! I think mantis may help with aphids, if you can find any of them hanging around (probably not).
I would suggest Neem Oil, then. You dilute it in water, and apply in the twilight hours. It eats away at the exoskeletons of the aphids, but it can also eat away at good insect exoskeletons, too. This is why you need to apply only once a day at a particular time, when the good insects are not active. You could just go crazy and kill everything for a fresh start, too. Aphids and Mites will lay dormant and keep coming back, especially in enclosed greenhouse spaces with lots of protection from the elements and outside bugs.










There’s an actual campground in Panama City, FL called Racremoved River, and this is exactly the experience. Grandparents took the grandchildren every year from ages 5 to 18. Lotta years, we never encountered a single racremoved. So disappointing.
In fact, there were more goats than racremoveds, which is somehow even more disappointing and confusing.
