I could have followed up with some pesticides after spraying with water and when they are for sale I will remove the pesticides off the products. job done
I have aphids on my zinnias. Should I hide them off or leave them so they don’t eat my cucumbers and tomatoes? They’re all in a GreenStalk. I also have whiteflies. Yeet!
I was doing this on my tomato plants earlier this summer. I think eventually, those bugs just stopped trying to get on the plants because they stopped being a problem.
I use a peppermint castile soap, some oil, and water mix and spray those buggers off. It works extremely well, it kills the bugs less than 30 seconds on contact and it's safe and harmless to the plant as long as you get the recipe right!
Thanks man, now my 6 year old wants to yet all the pest away. I had no idea she could be so useful… now with my brassicas, I started my 7b fall garden about a month ago and some of the leaves have white stringy circular lines in them, I know it’s a pest, I sprayed dawn water on them I’m on a new property… what exactly do you think by my description that I’m dealing with?

I used this method recently on Crepe Myrtle trees and it worked well.
They fall just to come back even worse.

They just come back.
So all this time I should've been buying YEET oil instead of Neem oil. D'oh! I see my problem …
Don't they just come back tho? What would you say is a more long term solution for this
I hate those things! They used to cling onto my kale all the time!
Better yet, use a pressure washer!

I purchased native ladybugs (not beetles) and all aphids gone, eaten, Bye Bye.
