Aphids are small insects that feed on plants. They use their piercing and sucking mouthparts to feed on the plant’s sap, causing damage to the plant while they feed.
Damage caused by aphids includes reduced plant growth, wilting, yellowing of leaves, and stunted plant development. Aphids can also spread plant diseases, such as viruses, by feeding infected plants and moving on to healthy plants.
If an infestation is not taken care of, aphids can cause serious damage to natural stone surfaces. To protect these surfaces, homeowners should inspect their stones for signs of an aphid infestation and contact a professional for treatment.
