Organic treatment for whitefly?

[LOTTYPOTTY]

Can anyone suggest an organic treatment for whitefly please? They are a major problem on all my brassicas and the only book I have on veg growing says that they are not usually a problem on plants in open ground - I seriously disagree with them!

I think the chilli and garlic concoction may be one of the organic treatments you can use - it has been posted about before I'm sure - I'll have a scout around...

ETA - thought so, Two Sheds posted a thread about this - have a look here.

Many thanks for your speedy reply. I shall mix up a brew and attack the little critters later today!

Hi Lotty..
One of my near neighbour's on our site uses a little salt dissolved in water, which he then waters on to the plants, he says "it kills the whitefly"?? not sure if that`s organic though??
