Posted - May 28 2012 : 10:39:31 AM Hello Everyone, This is my first post here, I hope I am in "the right place"...I'm a newbie! I noticed a few black aphids on one of my tomato plants this morning. I am companion gardening; basil w/tomato and want to keep it natural and organic. My question: will lady bugs do the trick of getting rid of those aphids? Thank you all! Katherine |
