I think I'd be cautious about spraying something like that on the leaves due to the acid content - even if diluted. My first thought was "Won't that damage the leaves?" Though it probably kills the aphids, I think ajdrew's suggestion seems like a safer bet - draw the little suckers away from the...

Do you mean actual lemon and lime fruit? If so, I can certainly give that a shot. I have tried a large tray with a with mixed with yellow food coloring before and that had a fairly good result, but it was tricky since it only seemed to work if the tray was below the branches for the aphids to...

Back in November, a little while after I started the seedlings, I took many of my plants from this past season into the house hoping to keep them alive, but it didn't take long for the aphids that came with them to spread.. and though I sprayed the seedlings with soapy water a few times it was...

*sigh* Too late.. None of the seedlings were very big. Few that were had lost leaves and were tall and spread thin.. I pulled them all, putting the plants themselves in soapy water and the soil in a bucket to hopefully reuse. I killed whatever aphids I saw along the way and I'm scrubbing down...

.. to it's positive, accepting and welcoming stance and it's open-mindedness towards science, education, etc. The now-exiting party even went so far as to rename the official title of the federal government from "Canadian Goverment" to "Harper Government" - talk about selfish ego. And in the...

Well, the fact that our now-outed government (Conservatives) donated $8 million dollars to a US Republican organization that has many current Republican politicians on it's board speaks volumes about where their loyalties lie -...

It didn't seem to until the past couple of elections or so - effectively since this new incarnation of the Conservative party came around. Once they merged with the Canadian Alliance (formerly "Reform Party Canada") they dropped the "Progressive" from their name and in so many of the comments...

.. after all, no leader is experienced with that top role until they been had time to hold it. They banked on essentially calling the people themselves stupid and lazy and it seems like their goal was to push the people to their limits to see just how much negativity they would put up with...
