A note from Mike These remedies work best for mild to moderate infestations caught early. A heavy infestation that's been building for weeks is harder to knock back with kitchen sprays alone — at that point you may need a proper organic product. Always spray in the evening when pollinators are not active, and test any new spray on a small area before treating the whole plant.
