Q&A – How do I control small green bugs on my petunias?

These are aphids. They attach to the plant and suck the juices. You can use neem oil but you have to spray regularly. You can also use biological controls like lady bugs. If they are very bad you can cut the plant back and dispose of the cuttings. Another option is insecticidal soap. You can use malathion though as a last resort. Also, don’t apply too much nitrogen fertilizer as it encourages new growth that the aphids like to eat.
