Well if you make a weak solution of washing up liquid and water i mean at least 1 part washing up liquid and 6 parts water and put it in a spray bottle spray the plants and it will kill the insects and the plant will be fine,its much better than harsher chemicals

I was going to suggest soapy water then you did say without using chemicals, well it works for me! :-/ a mild soapy wash applied with an atomiser spray!

The only way to get rid of these aphids is to introduce ladybirds into your garden. Ladybirds eat aphids by the million as a staple diet and are the aphids natural enemy. You may also know that aphids are asexual, so if a virus in introduced to one, they will all get it as they all have the same gene. Hope this helps...
