Get a removable disposable pen tube and put a small piece of scotch tape around it and pick up the aphids. They will stick to the scotch tape.

In a short term yes, but if you have big problems you may want to use other methods

Btw, i read that aphids develop wings if the plant is almost dying, to fly away to other plants. Nature is amazing.

I just had a problem like that on one of my sundews and it took me forever to clean them off with just a pair of tweezers, knowing thing should make the next one(I hope I never see them again) a breeze. thanks man!
