Thanks for the advice. Is there anything in the orange power 409 that makes
it special?

Larry,

I don't believe that neem kills bugs (I may be wrong) but it does inhibit
the growth of the young so they can't multiply.

You can use a mix of 1 pint isopropyl alcohol and one pint orange power
409 with enough water to fill a gallon container and spray the plants when
ever you see bugs.

The 409 loosens the waxy protection the bugs have and the alcohol kills
them. Mealies, scale, and spider mites are susceptable.
