I unfortunately failed to check some plants I bought and ended up bringing aphids into my indoor plants. The dont bug me from fox farm was worse than useless as it made me think I had it done and 2 weeks later nearly every plant, over 50 of them were infested. I hit all the plants up side and under the leaves last night and the Neem killed all the ones that got soaked but there were still alot walking around after a few hours. Has anyone used Neem and do you know if it kills them after its dried on the leaves? Thanks for any input.

Do you need help identifying a 🌶?
Is your plant suffering from an unknown issue? 🤧
Then ask in Identification and Diagnosis.

Neem is great & using every few days until they die down wont hurt the plant. Something to look out for is ants - they clip the wings off the aphids & treat them like cattle. Take out the ants as well as using neem & your aphid infestation should reduce dramatically.
Bent put me onto Neem and it works great. When i give my plants the occasional foliar feed i like to mix some neem into the mix as well.
It helps condition the plants and makes them look all glossy. I do not think it works after drying though because it says to use within X amount of time aftee mixing and the active ingredient degrades rather fast from what i understand. You can use it all you like really without worrying about frying your plants.

The neem I use is in a spray bottle, I guess I can mix some dish soap in that. Thanks for the tips.
neem works for me but you gotta be persistant. dont miss under any leaf the multiply fast!
