I see that there is another thread or two on this but I have not found much of a consensus about what to do when your dried harvested hops are crawling with these bugs. They seemed good when we picked them, then within 24 hours I noticed a very significant amount of tiny tiny little aphids taking over. Now after another 24 hours I am seeing lady bug larve starting to show up to this awful party and crawl around as well. I plan to use my harvest for one beer, half in the whirlpool and half in dry hop. What would you do if you were in my situation. This was my first actual decent harvest so I will be bummed if I have to throw them all out...
