Default Wooly Aphids - Help Required

I have had good success with a plain (not anti-bac.) washing-up liquid in
water. It is sprayed finely under the leaves (point the nozzle upward). I
cleared a long beach hedge completely this way 4 weeks ago, no return!

Dear All,

This is my first post, so a big hello to you all out there.

I am having some difficulties getting rid of wooly aphids on my
phyracantha - they are taking over. I have tried pressure hosing and
various chemical preparations but they are still winning the war so any
ideas would be gratefully appreciated.

Best wishes,

Jean.
