@Gasrocks, Gene always gives great advice. He recommended AzaMax just the other day. I have not checked stores for this yet.

On Line:
AzaMax™ controls target pests on contact or by ingestion. The product acts on pests by way of repellence, anti-feedance, and interference. It is all natural, the active ingredient is Azadirachtin. I have found it on line in pints and up to gallons. It seems a bit high, but is actually cheaper than my Neem oil. My first search I only found large containers, but the smaller ones are available.

I have tried almost everything over the years. I winter about 1600 plants inside. Means they are close together. Means pests are my #1 problem. Not anymore. I found Azamax. Now, I could not live without it. In a way a concentrated Neem Oil spray. Not too expensive. Can be sprayed on almost everything. Safe to use around children, pets, fish. Every other pesticide I have seen says do not use around fish. Does not smell up the house. Can be used indoors or out. Safe for honey bees. Kills Fungus Gnats, whitefly, mealy bugs, scale, spider mites, cabbage worms, Japanese beetles, etc. etc. Does not kill on contact. Works a different way. Think of it as birth control for bugs. Makes the plant taste bad, stops bugs from growing, kills eggs. It works! That's the main thing. Ask me for more details if you like. Gene
