Oh Dear Oh Dear,I have just looked at my Lupins and the leaves and unopened flower heads are infested with a white fly...is there a quick non chemical fix that you know of? I would be grateful for any help.

dont know of one unless you can find a natural preditor. The only other way is to gently squish them between finger and thumb.

In use washing up liquid too but I add a teaspoon of cooking oil to make it sticky and it lingers a bit longer on the plants.
