Explanation:

Honeydew is a sugar-rich sticky liquid, secreted by aphids and some scale insects as they feed on plant sap. When their mouthpart penetrates the phloem, the sugary, high-pressure liquid is forced out of the anus of the aphid.. Honeydew can cause sooty mold-a bane of gardeners-on many ornamental plants.
