My pepper / chilli plants and herb plants are beginning to get covered in tiny aphids. They are positioned in the utility room where it is nice and warm.

Anyone know a safe way to get rid of them? I dont want to use a chemical solution as I am eating the fruit/leaves.

I cant put these ones outside either, they are in ceramic pots with no drainage.

Any ideas?

Spray them with water with a very little washing up liquid in....seems to do the trick

aphids breath through their skin , so you can have fun watching them suffercate as they fall off , lol lol lol
