I like the fact this uses stuff you already have in your pantry. I didn't have hot chili peppers so I used jalapeno peppers that I had in the freezer already diced up. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to try it yet since it's been raining here quite often whenever I want to spray it on. I will report back whenever I do get to spray it on. I put the concoction in clean mayonnaise jars that I saved so it will be there when I'm ready. I will add the stars whenever I've used the stuff.<br/>UPDATE: It finally dried up enough for me to try this on my hibiscus and pagoda plants that had white flies on them. It got rid of them and they haven't been back. Will use this often!!
