Aphids, also known as plant lice, are minute plant-feeding insects.
Plant Lice, the plant version of similar things found on humans, such as Body Lice, and Pubic Lice, they feed on hundred of specied of plant life.
While aphids often go unnoticed, their waste, called honeydew, is more conspicuous. Honeydew is often described as a "clear, sticky liquid raining from trees." It coats bark, leaves, and objects beneath the plant. Honeydew is easily seen on car windshields and lawn furniture, and can be difficult to remove.
That's right. Think about that next time you eat a salad, or, god forbid, a "honeydew" melon.
