Tomato Aphid Damage To Tomatoes In most cases, aphids cause little to no damage to plants and can be ignored. if aphids are causing problems, and it is necessary to treat them, you may want to consider using insecticides. Even if the damage they do to plants is minor, aphids carry and spread some serious plant diseases. between direct and indirect damage, and how insanely quick they reproduce, aphids are some of the most destructive pests to contend with over the summer months. Aphids harm plants by draining them of nutrients, causing yellowing or discolored foliage as well as plant decay and death. aphids also spread plant diseases, increase the likelihood of fungal growth, damage developing fruit, attract unwanted ants, and infect plants with gall forming toxins. Although aphids seldom kill a mature plant, the damage they do and unsightly honeydew they generate sometimes warrant control. consider the nonchemical controls discussed below, as most insecticides will destroy beneficial insects along with the pest.
