Good thing about honeydew is that like honey it dissolves easily in water.Have harvested and shelled the broad beans. The aphids made a right sticky mess and I decided to just dump them in the sink filled with water. Gave them a right rumble about and a couple of rinses and lo and behold they came out pristine. What was interesting was that the fingers turning black after shelling was eliminated so will do that from now on whether aphids or not. Think they were just dirty with dust etc. plus the honeydew.
