Lucky, I use an insecticidal spray made up of 1 pint 409, 1 pint rubbing alcohol, and 3 quarts water. I would spray both top and bottom sides of your leaves and then after 5 minutes or so, rinse everything off with clear water. You might have to do this again in 2-3 days and possibly a third time a week later to rid your plants of all those pests. I made this spray to use on orchids but when I brought all my (blooming) plumeria inside the solarium, I used it on them. The spray got all over the flowers and buds as well. I don't see any damage to those inflo, but I did mist the flowers/buds well with clear water, to the point of running off.

The reason it's so hard to lose weight when you get up in age is because your body and your fat have become good friends.
