We have an old Maple with an insect infestation. I believe it to be aphids. Leaves are yellowing and falling and colonies of larvae are present. Needing help with what to do. Please help us out. We live in Audubon.

The photograph is a little fuzzy.  We are unable to identify the insect or insects in the photo at this time.  There may be an aphid and a second insect on the maple branch. 

We would like 2 or 3 additional photos of affected branches.  Make sure the photos are sharp and clear.  Send the photos to <personal data hidden>
