How do you get rid of aphids and then ants that farm them on fruit trees? What product is safe to use? Thank you for your help.

Once you control the aphids, the ants will go elsewhere. Contact foliar-applied insecticides include insecticidal soaps and malathion. Apply according to label directions.

Good luck with your plum tree!
