Around here the local "Ace Hardware" is well stocked this time of year and has good deals in an effort to compete with HD and the others.
I ended up buying "insecticidal soap" from Garden Safe and it worked very well. The cost was $4.95 for 24 oz and there is a concentrate refill available also.
They advertise that you can use this on sdibles up until the day you harvest!
