Why does this work?

I sprayed some water from my washing-up onto my roses and instead of being
covered in greenfly they are now covered in black(dead)greenfly.

How does that work then?

How long did it take before it worked. Yesterday I tried spraying with
a solution of Dreft and water with no effect. I added meths and tried
again and still no effect, I added a lot of meths and I swear I could
hear drunken singing. :-)
