Default Whitefly problem

Hello all
I have a lot of whitefly on the underneath of the leaves on my brassicas.
I have tried to get rid using acouple of "friendly" pesticides with little
success.

Can anybody give me advice please.

Thanks

Diluted soap from your sink after you have done the dishes, and do it
regularly.

These flies are naturally attracted to the colour yellow, so put something
yellow in your plot to attract them.
