will they be easy to see on my plant??? i have really strong signs of them being there, but i cannot see any.

the signs include brown spots appearing all over my leaves, some with holes chewed through the spots.

and ants. ants started showing up a few days before the spots started forming. i read that they are a big sign of aphid infestation. can someone please help me if you can??

You already have an active thread going on this same issue. You still have not provided any close up pic of the UNDERside of the leaves. How many threads do you think it will take to solve the problems of a patient person? One?

well maybe if you read what i replied to what you said you would understand that i cant do that.

not to mention, if you want to get technical, my last post was about brown spots, this is about finding aphids. so, there are not 2 active posts on the same issue.

now, as i said, SOMEONE WHO KNOWS APHIDS, can u help me???

alright so ive figured out that i have root aphids. read up on it, and decided to place sand ontop of the soil to help rid my plant of them.
