Some good images of thrips:

Good images of aphids:

Green aphids are the most common I think, but there are yellow, black, red and purple ones too.

Yeah, its the organic way of removing them on crops. But your vft isnt going anywhere so will probably keep the population going. Plus lady birds can get eaten

Great guide Hayden. This thread should be stickyed.

Add BUG clear to the list, it is effective on spider mites i think. Ive used it on all my plants, but it does stain Darlingtonia and possible sarracenia.
