yup, steep it for awhile, spray it on the plant, especially on the underside of the leaves ... I can't tell you how well it works, only that it is an old stand-by ... if you put a drop of detergent in there with it, it helps it stick to the plant better ... my neighbor got spidermites, used Neem Oil religiously, never did get rid of them ... I live next door, have one No-Pest Strip hanging up, never had a bug ... (yeah, I know, they ain't organic)
