Attract beneficial insects that will eat the aphids. Draw in bug-eating birds to help fix the problem. Buy a sticky trap to catch the aphids. Use plants that aphids love to lure them away from other plants.
By growing herbs such as mint, dill, or clover, you’ll attract ladybugs and lacewings. Both of these insects are known for eating aphids, which will help decrease the number you have eating your plants. You can also purchase ladybugs or lacewings from a farming supplier to release in your yard, if desired. Wrens, titmice, and chickadees are all helpful when it comes to eating aphids. To encourage these birds to live near your yard, plant shrubs with dense foliage or small trees perfect for nesting. You can also set up a bird feeder to help attract the birds. Install small birdhouses for the birds to live in as an alternative to planting shrubs or trees. These yellow traps catch aphids using their sticky surface—just hang them on a branch or position them next to your plants. You can buy sticky traps from a home and garden store, as well as online. Grow plants that attract aphids, like asters or cosmos, planting them away from the plants you want to protect. The aphids will be drawn to these plants and will stay away from less appetizing plants as a result.  Aphids also like dahlias, larkspur, and zinnias. These decoy plants are a bit like a sacrifice to the aphids in your garden. The aphids will concentrate on them, so avoid becoming too attached. Not controlling aphids will only lead to an increase in their numbers, eventually leading to their spread to other plants. You will still need to police their numbers on your decoy plants. How far away you plant the trap plants will depend on the specific type of plant and how much room it needs to grow. Start with at least a distance of 2 feet (24 in).
