I have actually done a lot of research in the best resource I could find is this what looks to be outdated video on YouTube. The guy breaks down a lot of insecticides and there effectiveness and I have found the best one to be imidacloprid. The problem is I can't find this anywhere is there any help on this I really need some Aphid control

I don't use it myself but I suggest you use the "search" feature to find out how others have done. This thread for example http://www.flytrapcare.com/phpBB3/post3 ... ml#p351484

Neem oil is the best natural control for aphids on CPs. Application will depend on what type of CP you have. Spray for branchy plants and rest should be cotton dab.

Look for BioAdvanced 3-in-1 Insect, Disease & Mite Control. It did a great job of wiping out the aphid infestation on my sundews.
