... Aphids are small, soft-bodied insects that feed on stems, leaves, and other tender plant parts and suck out plant fluids. Aphids seldom kill a mature plant. Large populations cause curling, yellowing, and distortion of leaves and stunting of shoots. They can also produce large quantities of a sticky ...
