You either use the dish soap or the oil... The soap is an emulsifier for the neem like protek. I've never used cooking oil. Take one of those pump up sprayers and blast them off rhen let them recover. Spray with neem again. What stage are you in? Veg,flower?

Bugs be ruining my month Hey everyone i got some sort of super bugs on my plants. not sure if they are aphids or spider mites but i do know that a 12 ounce bottle filled with 1-2% neem oil, 1-2% dish soap, 1-2% cooking oil, or sesame seed oil. Will not kill them been spraying for the last 2-3 weeks every 3-5 days. Ill spray, then the next day i see them chilln on the tops and bottom of the leafs. Ive had a bad experience with concentrated neem oil, following the directions sometimes is not a good thing. Sprayed my last Rating: 5
