So far this scorching hot summer, we've had no troubles with aphids. I hope I'm not tempting fate.
We do like to plant Lemon Grasd amongst our crops, here us our trials tunnel. We also place z big pot of Lemon Grass in our seed saving greenhouses. Lemon Grass is a natural source of citronella, as found in insect repellent candles. Works inside too.
As a bonus, straps of cut Lemon Grass placed in and around the raised beds seems to deter the local cat population from using them for their convenience...
