I hate Aphids!

For many of your readers, you are saying what in the heck is an Aphid. Well let me tell you, an Aphid is an insect that feeds on Soybean plants. As an Agronomist, this is not a good thing. By feeding on the plant, not only do they open it up for diseases to get in, but the also multiple and eat the many reason we grow Soybeans, the soybeans. So over the past couple of days, I have spend many hours walking bean fields looking for the little buggers. Boy is that a boring job.
