What's the best spray to kill aphids on house plants?

I've got them on a spider plant and an aloe. Little ones that look like fleas.

What's the best spray to kill aphids on house plants?
Sew their mouths shut. Then they'll starve to death ...
Reply:Ladybugs!!!!!!!! They eat aphids.
Reply:You can try a mild, weak soap solution and spray it on, or you can use a systemic poison that you water into the soil; the roots absorb the poison, and the aphids suck it out.
Reply:Try mixing a cigarette with the water in your spray bottle. This has worked for me against spider mites. just tear the filter off and let it soak in the bottle overnight.
Reply:Aphids hate garlic. Put some crushed galic in some water in a spray bottle and spray away. This always worked on my rose plants.
