meet your death Mr. Bugs

Today I noticed several of my maples where infested with thousands of these nifty little creatures. Not sure what they are, approx. 0.5 - 0.8 mm big. Kind of nice insects I would say, somewhat more metal than your regular ladybug. Likeable regardless, they must die. As allways suggestions to what species it can be are allways welcome.



Since I am a homegrown kind of guy without immediate access to my car at the time being, I have found a standard recipe for several sorts of aphids that will be used as soon as the solution has cooled down a bit:

1. 2 l. Hot Water.
2. 40 ml. Green Soap.
3. Let Cool Down
4. 100 ml Red Spirit.

Should be sprayed on stem, leaves and substratesurface.
