Lacewing, ladybug and syrphid fly larvae eat peach and potato aphids. The beneficial insects in question feed upon both types of aphids, with their efforts being augmented by a parasitic fungus (Entomophthora aphidis) in terms of the green peach aphid.
The peach-potato aphid eats the leaves of trees like the peach tree. This insect can cause a lot of damage to trees as well as crops.
Yes, the peach potato aphid is considered a herbivore. It feeds on the sap of various plants, particularly peach and potato plants, by piercing their tissues with specialized mouthparts. This feeding behavior can lead to damage in the host plants and may also facilitate the transmission of plant viruses.

The black and white insects that often infest peaches are likely to be a type of aphid, specifically the black peach aphid or green peach aphid, which can appear dark due to their coloration and the presence of sooty mold. These pests feed on the sap of the tree, weakening it and potentially leading to fruit drop or deformities. Additionally, the presence of these aphids can attract ants and lead to further issues with fungal diseases. It's important to monitor and manage these pests to protect your peach crop.
The green peach aphid (Myzus persicae) has long, segmented antennae that are typically longer than its body. These antennae are composed of multiple segments, allowing for a high degree of sensitivity to environmental cues. They play a crucial role in detecting chemical signals and other stimuli in the aphid's surroundings. This adaptation helps the aphid navigate and find suitable plants for feeding and reproduction.
