Aphids and soapy spray
In article , "Mary Fisher" writes: | | The reason that they don't mention it is that our Lords and Masters | in Whitehall have made it illegal to use detergent and methylated | spirits, and imposed extra restrictions on horticultural soaps | (such as Savona). A conspiracy theorist would suspect that was | done in arrangement with the agrichemical companies. | | Well, that's not exactly true. It's not permitted to use any preparation | which isn't licensed and soapy water and meths etc. haven't been licensed. I | doubt that one would be banged up for using such things but it is illegal to | unlicensed sell soapy water as a treatment for pests. Can you explain why what I said isn't true? Regards, Nick Maclaren. |
