Here is a shot of aphids feeding on blooms that are developing. I spent $10 on a container of ladybugs hoping they would get in the nooks and crannies. I just can't keep up with the aphids using a q-tip and alcohol. They are getting bad. They ladybugs are definitely sticking around on the plant, but can't say they are eating the aphids like crazy, yet.

I have sprayed with Volck, and just a strong jet spray with water. Nothing really works. Any suggestions?
