I have cleared my aphid problem using Tomato leaves,I saw mention on the interweb so I gave it a try,by all accounts Toms are part of the deadly nightshade family. Two cups of chopped leaves soaked over night in two cups of water,then strained off and add another two cups. My Chinese Mustard was absolutely covered,I had tried Garlic and Tobacco sprays which worked but it was an on going battle. The Tom spray used a couple of times cleared up the little white things that were in,on and around the mustard plus cleared the Aphids,we have been clear now.
Saying that,sods law I walk back to the garden and they will be back,they were just waiting for me to say something,hiding in the undergrowth.
Just to add,I only have a small patch of Mustard and the spray was used sparingly,so effects on fish is unknown,or if there is any,being deadly nightshade and all. The wife seems to have gone missing though
with ladybugs as sharks.
