I control white fly with an insecticidal soap spray. It/s also works on
aphids. It/s important to spray when the flies and/or aphids first appear
b/c it/s easier to control them before an infestation sets in.

Also consider that healthy plants are better able to resist insects and
disease, so weekly fish oil and kelp foliar feedings late in the day are
well worth the effort.
