7. I'm going to try my local garden center.

I just posted about this yesterday here, and someone suggested lady bugs. I've tried spraying them with garlic-infused water - read that on the internets - some people say to spray with garlic water with dish soap, or eucalyptus oil. Next year I'm going to plant some garlic around the base of the roses. I guess the buggers really don't like garlic! But this year I'm going to try the lady bugs along with the garlic water, mostly just because they're such cheerful little insects.
