Aphids on Pepper plants.


Question
I saw an earlier question where you recommended someone use lemon dish soap mixed with water to get rid of aphids on a hot pepper plant. Could you use an orange dish soap as well?

Answer
Yes you could, but just make sure it is non-concentrated. As I probably mentioned in the email you referenced, mix one tbs. of soap and one tbs. of lemon ammonia per gallon of water and spray liberally on the plant. Repeat every 3-5 days until the problem disappears.

Good luck, and please write again if I can ever provide assistance.

Regards,

Mike
