I have for years used Schultz Instant House and Garden Spray to get rid
of aphids on my indoor and outdoor plants. It works very well and I
haven't had any problems with the product. Twice I lost huge oleander
plants when I sprayed them with safer's soap. I am a great believer in
pyrethrins and wonder why it isn't used more often. It kills aphids almost
instantly
