Ladybugs eat aphids - if you can't find any for sale locally Amazon
seems to have them in stock. Or spray with dilute soapy water.
A couple years ago I had aphids on my roses that ants were herding and
"milking" - no luck with getting photos but it was a treat just to
watch, something I had always wanted to see.

One of my best tropical milkweed plants has been infested with Oleander
Aphids. They love, and while they do not kill Monarch caterpillars, they
suck the nutritious juices from the plant.
