Fruit flies are not aphids. Aphids are bugs that attach themselves to a leaf and draw fluid from a plant. Aphids on an oak tree look like a round bump. The liquid on their backs is harvested by ants. The best way to kill the aphids is probably by a dose of ladybugs, available at a local nursery; but there are also oil and/or chemical treatments.
