That's a good point, but Malathion does seem to damage the foliage,
and it tends to become concentrated at leaf tips, on account of the
curl. I'm trying to avoid that when I do the second tap water spray.
Maybe if I left the Malathion spray on longer, maybe a half or three
quarters of an hour before hitting them with straight tap water
again? I'm using Smart and Final spray bottles to spray with, at a
dollar apiece I thought would do the job well enough, but they seem to
deliver rather too much spray too hard.
