The message
from Chris Hogg contains these words:

A disadvantage of these insecticides for conservatory or indoor use is
that they cover everything they come into contact with (floors,
windows, shelves etc.) with a film of oil. Messy, especially if using
them as a drench!


The other good thing about the Bio stuff was, that there wasn't any
messy/sticky fall-out from it at all, walls furniture or floor, and
this in a pale room where you couldn't miss it.


Then almost certainly a soap. I use Savona (available from Green
Gardener or Tuckers, but not most garden centres due to our wonderful
Whitehall), which washes off just like any other liquid soap.

Naturen, on the other hand, leaves a surface film as sticky and as
hard to remove as linseed oil does (i.e. it is another 'drying' oil).
Never again ....
