I posted this on the clinic forum, but I see that people on here are also talking about pests, so here is my question:

I have ants on some of the tips of my viburnum. I don't have much damage. I mostly leave them alone. But I just read that ants can transfer aphids to uninfected parts of the plant. I haven't been able to see any aphids and I have been looking.

Do you think the ants necessarily inidicate aphids and I should treat for aphids?

thanks,
