You wanna use aphidoletes. I used them this grow. In a week I couldn't find anymore aphids.

actually I'm a bit leaning more to lady bugs
they can multi task and dine on whiteflies and other vermin

No worries. I've used lady bugs before but they all seem to escape from my tent quickly lol.

If you have a large local nursery they might have them.
Mine sells them in cups of 1,000

My area has been overrun with ladybugs recently. I've never seen so many before. These must be a migrating variety. Whatever the reason, I'm happy they're here.
