Aphid Control

Gardening time of year is fast approaching...

Q: Can you suggest a homemade spray for controlling aphids?

A: Try this mixture to control aphids, white flies, and even destructive beetles: 2 parts rubbing alcohol, 5 parts water, and 1 tablespoon liquid soap. Spray the mixture on the foliage of garden plants that are susceptible to these pests.
