Default [IBC] spray oil for wooly aphids ?

Hi folks...in just the last week I seem to have been the target of a mass
attack of wooly aphids...most of my trees are experiencing them ! Some trees they
are probably just inspecting, but I dont want any traces of em when things go
into the coldframe...which is probably not too far off here in western ma.
Can anyone tell me of any species that blatantly does NOT like the oil ? a
rough list of trees is as follows.....larix laricina, shimpaku juniper ,japanese
flowering cherry .crabapple. barberry. hawthorn. wisteria. japanese maple. yew.
cotoneaster. chinese elm. japanese white pine. rosemary and mugo pine. Any
help would be appreciated...thanks a bunch...BobO...wetern Ma
