Neem Oil is very good and easy to locate at your garden centers. It smothers them and poisons them both.
Aphids become resistant to poisons very quickly. One can grow monster aphids very easily. Therefor mix it up and use oils to smother them. They can not become resistant to oils.

This is definitely OIL weather right now. Spray oils decimate aphids.
Neem Oil & JMS Stylet Oil will both also control Powdery Mildew which might also be appearing right about now.

Try some orthenex, works for all sorts of bugs including aphids and also controls PM and other fungus types.
