I had that on my zinnias when I lived in South Carolina. I sprayed
them with a half-and-half mixture of water and 2% milk, no kidding. It
worked very well - I sprayed again after each heavy rain, and presto.

Hope that helps.

Sparky,
I can get raw milk from a local dairy man. How would I mix it with
whole milk?
Thanks for any help.
