Hello Chile-heads. Let me de-lurk for the first time with 
a few extra thoughts for growers like myself with an organic
preference. 

Some suggestions I've seen include spraying with water with
detergent and garlic oil - I haven't tried this; anyone know 
if it helps ? A method I have tried is chilli powder, soaked 
in warm water with a drop of detergent, then strained into a 
couple of pints of water and sprayed on. I tried this with 
2 teaspoons of ground De Arbol - it appeared to work; the 
greenfly certainly started moving !

Tony.
