Root Aphid Example

If anybody needs a good example of root aphids here is what I found when I repotted my Spruce on the weekend. It had two rounds of aphids on the needles which I guess should have been a sign. I treated the needle aphids and now have repotted and will treat tomorrow with nematodes. The foliage has gone quite brown, but it is pushing new buds, really hoping it pulls through. [1] [2] [3]
