I know its not a garden query but what can i use on African Violets
to
get rid of greenfly Thanks

I'd normally reply that you should spray with a mild solution of soapy
water, but methinks that African violets do not like getting their
leaves wet........

Your best bet is to crush them gently !

I wash my African violets under the tap (tepid water not cold) to
rinse dust off their hairy leaves, and they don't seem to mind at all.
You can probably get rid of the greenfly after a few washes. Just let
the plants dry off out of the sun so the water drops don't make scorch
marks.
