The ant' are "farming" the aphid's. They protect them in return for the sweet liquid the aphid's excrete. There are many spray's available.

Soapy water works on aphids and worked on my french beans but the trees are covered and struggling and the blackthorn look like someone has poured sugar all over them so i will go i with the provado ultimate bug killer.
