I've got a courgette plant in a pot with 4 flowers on it. I have just noticed blackfly on the flower nearest the soil. Help What can I do?

Can you cut them off and bin them before they start to spread? Or just squash them?If it ain't broke...fix it til it is!

The flowers only last a few days at best, so if when they go, the blackfly go, problem gone."Orinoco was a fat lazy Womble"
Please ignore everything I say, I make it up as I go along, not only do I generally not believe what I write, I never remember it either.Comment

Don't be tempted to ignore them: they are born pregnant, and will quickly get out of control.
