Liquid Soap Mix For Aphids

Question From: w. rollins - LOUISIANA
Q: what is the ratio of liquid soap to water for aphids on crepe myrtle trees

A:

You can use 2 teaspoons dish soap to a quart of water. Don't choose one with bleach or other funky additives. A couple of drops of salad oil will act as a spreader sticker. Shake well before spraying. Be sure to hit the undersides of the leaves and it's best to spray in the evening or the morning. Best and Happy Yardening, Nancy
