    For aphids you can use garlic or tomato leaves. Just leave the garlic or the crushed leaves in water overnight and then use liquid to spray plants.

    If you have white flies or aphids, it seems as if they belong to one family.

    Description
    Whiteflies are white insects with pale yellow bodies that are approximately 2 mm long. They belong to the order Homoptera and are close relatives of aphids, scales, mealybugs, hoppers and cicadas.
