One tablespoon of dishwasher soap per gallon of H2O works great to kill aphids. I tried it using Dove soap. Works as good as a herbicide.

No kidding? As in weed killer? I've also had success using dishwasher soap for aphids. I mixed a small dash of Dawn in a hand sprayer filled with water, and sprayed my Hibiscus. It's the first time I've been successful in salvaging the plants -- and I've tried every poison product that has been recommended to me to get this done. :-)
================

The thing to recognize is that detergents are poisonous! Especially if they say on the label, "anti-bacterial." BY LAW, any cleaning agent that says "anti-bacterial" contains a REGISTERED PESTICIDE in it. Things can't be registered as pesticides unless they are recognized poisons by an agency of the U.S. government.
