I haven't heard about this before but I think one cup is not enough. If I still had my garden I would place Vaseline covered cups everywhere to see how well it works. Make sure and put them out early before aphids infest the plants. I believe this photo is from a mock orange. Aphids would always end up on the mock orange every year.

Good to know.
I am curious to see our group feedback on it. 😄

No, but I will try, also! Then again, all you early-climate gardeners will get to report your results before I will need it 👍

New one for me. Worth a try.

New one for me too but worth the sacrifice of a yellow cup, a stake and some vaseline.

Posted by FernappleNature is the best gardener still. All nature asks is a little space, that's all. Maybe no more than a slightly leaky fall pipe, and a bit of neglected wall, and you have a perfect tiny garden.
