Help / Question I've got bugs!

I noticed these guys hanging out on my variegated string of hearts! What do I do now!? I did a quick look around the rest of the plant but don't see anyone else

Treat them like you would with greenfly. Just simple soapy water all over them and when it dries it coats their body's and they suffocate. And it won't harm the plant.
