Root aphids now thats a tough one.
@Bgag Canncontrol Mammoth might do it, mix a bottle or cup or something at half strength and do a root soak, should suffocate any insects down there
Im trying to deal with them with Beauveria, Isaria, Nomuraea and Metarhizium
I’m starting to see some of them dead already.
Are you in the USA?
Bayer Tree and Shrub is widely available. I use Temprid SC from domyown.com
One time will probably do the trick, it’s systemic so it’s active for a few days after a spray. I’d do it again a week later to be absolutely certain.
Imid kills fungus gnats but they’ll come right back if conditions are right. Wet organic soil is a party for them.

Do I root drench temprid sc or just a spray ?
Root drench would be more effective, kill the gnats too. Dosage depends on concentration. I use 15-20mL/gallon of Temprid but it’s 20% imid.
Boy LARA and DARD would have a fit up in here
