Okra invaders

Louisville, KY

My okra are constantly being taken over by ants that are all about those darn aphids. I have tried some all natural soaps after giving the plants a good blast of water, but by the end of the day they are already back. Any other ideas? I also tried spraying the plants with a homemade pepper spray...they are stubborn and don't seem put off at all. Any recommendations appreciated (natural recommendations).

Control the ants.

If you control the aphids you won't have the ants,

The opposite it is true, too. If you can get rid of the ants they won't keep bringing the aphids back.
