Is there a spray one can make up for greenfly and aphids (on rose buds in

Hi Pinetree,a pint of water with one or two of cap's full of cooking oil.
Add a couple of drops of detergent to break up the oil,give it a good shake
and spray.
The idea is the oil coats the aphids and they suffocate.
Some people only use the water and detergent. I dont like this because too
much detergent can damage the plants.
