found these on my tomato leaves. they seem to congregate on one stem and nowhere else. then a week or so later ill see them all on another stem. r they aphids?? what should i use to treat it?
pest ID
another pic
The second pic definitely looks like aphids. I'd use a strong blast of soapy water, top and bottom sides of the leaves (LEMON AJAX - not antibacterial - use regular)
I agree with Gymgirl, the second is aphids. The top photo looks like a snail. Might be just the high magnification that makes it look like that.
def not a snail. it had legs and walked around.
