Backyard Aquaponics

Lettuce was about ready to harvest then, came out the next day and aphids had literally infested the more mature lettuce. I counted nearly 28 on one plant alone. They hadn'y gone for the less mature lettuce only te big boys. I read many of the posts here about control but spraying may not be an option as we are inside. It is in a garage so it is semi exposed to the elements. I suppose I wouldn't mind introducing lady bugs, but will that work? I took out the plants infected and had to throw them away till I come up with something to save the young ones who are quickly maturing. Any ideas?

If you can get lady bugs, thats the way to go. Chuck Aphids into the search up the top right, there is a whole heap of info....
