Wow, I thought that was for the powdery
mildew issue.  Thanks!

Although good old plain water is usually good
enough for aphids, the spray
formula requested IS for aphids, mealy bugs,
etc. as well as other ailments!
it is called "insecticidal soap." Nothing more
than a teaspoon of dishsoap,
a tablespoon of vegetable oil, and a gallon of
water. The mixture clogs the
little bugger's pores. Add two tablespoons of
baking soda, and you have a
preventative spray for blackspot. Many other
homemade formulas abound, using
such things as Murphy's oil soap, Mr. Clean,
TSP, and others. Get a good
organic gardening book.
