Thanks Lorax. Mskitty had none of SM but I saw them in Pete's gallery. I thought I had SM because the aphids form like a spider web at the branch tips & eat the new leaves. I think aphids are a little smaller too, but I look for webbing. Wish I had a decent camera to post pics of them & damage. How can such little tiny buggers do so much damage???
