Cleaning banana leaves...
I have my bananas in pots for the winter (as well as some under the house).
For the bananas in the pots, I fear that I am getting aphids on the leaves. Can I use Clorox disinfecting wipes to clean the leaves and get rid of the aphids? Suggestions? Thanks folks...you guys are always the best. |

Make a nontoxic pesticide by mixing 1 c. vegetable oil with 1 tbsp. liquid dishwashing soap. Add 1 1/2 tsp. solution per cup of warm water to a handheld spray bottle. Hit the aphids directly with above mixture and spray entire plant thoroughly. |
