ladie bugs will do job if you keep in mind they have to disrupt life cycle they kill adults and juveniles but can leave before eggs hatch with more so make sure to slow release LB

Tabacco Juice recipe

@Steveo

Try this it works great. I use tis when i get them

Take 3 strong ciggeretes soak them over night in water and the hottest hot sauce you can find.
Boil it for 2 to 3 miniutes, let it cool off the strain using ladies nylon socks and spray the plants 3 to 4 times a week. You can add safer soap if you like to the mixture.
(make absolutly sure you use gloves/face protection while handling and spraying)
