• Bees produce honey by gathering and then refining the sugary secretions of plants (primarily floral nectar) or the secretions of other insects, like the honeydew of aphids.
• So-called dairying ants have a mutualistic relationship with aphids, tending them for their honeydew and protecting them from predators.
• In the late 19th century, the entire species was nearly destroyed in an event known as the Great French Wine Blight, in which the grape pest phylloxera, an insect related to aphids, was accidentally introduced to Europe from North America.
• In other species, the larvae are insectivores, preying on aphids, thrips, and other plant-sucking insects.
• He was among the first to notice parthenogenetic reproduction in aphids and established that insects respired through their spiracles.
• This includes the orders Orthoptera (crickets, grasshoppers and locusts), Hemiptera (cicadas, shield bugs, whiteflies, aphids, leafhoppers, froghoppers, treehoppers), mayflies, termites, cockroaches, mantises, stoneflies and Odonata (dragonflies and damselflies).
• These almost microscopic, pale yellow sap-sucking insects, related to aphids, feed on the roots and leaves of grapevines (depending on the phylloxera genetic strain).
• They primarily eat grains, seeds and berries, being voracious consumers of weed seeds such as nettle and dandelion; included are incidental small insects such as aphids.
• In Old English, mildew meant honeydew (a substance secreted by aphids on leaves, formerly thought to distill from the air like dew), and later came to mean mold or fungus.
• Isolated myristicin has proven an effective insecticide against many agricultural pests, including Aedes aegypti mosquito larvae, Spilosoma obliqua (hairy caterpillars), Epilachna varivestis (Mexican bean beetles), Acyrthosiphon pisum (pea aphids), mites, and Drosophila melanogaster (fruit flies).
• Red-eyed vireos glean insects from tree foliage, favouring caterpillars and aphids and sometimes hovering while foraging.
• Ladybugs are generally thought of as beneficial because they eat large quantities of aphids, mites and other arthropods that feed on various plants.
• Due to the stinging hairs, Urtica species are rarely eaten by herbivores, but provide shelter for insects such as aphids, butterfly larvae, and moths.
• Formica ants appear to take on a shepherding role with smaller aphids, relocating them to different parts of plants to ensure a continuous food source for the aphids.
• Research has shown that the UV pigments of the Hypericum calycinum flower stave off predators such as mites and aphids.
• Examples include parthenogenic and androgenetic species, periodically mating organisms such as aphids, some eusocial wasps, bees, ants, and termites.
• Usage has increased in recent years because it is one of the few insecticides effective on soybean aphids, which have expanded their range since 2002 to include most soybean-growing regions of the United States.
• They live on a diet of honeydew excreted by aphids and feed on many types of insect and other invertebrates.
• Lycaenid caterpillars are diverse in their food habits and apart from phytophagy, some are entomophagous, feeding on aphids, scale insects, and ant larvae.
• Producers must contend with major diseases such as black shank and blue mold and insects like aphids, tobacco hornworms and budworms.
