White fly have colonised on my indoor m/h salvia.
Everywhere i read it says they are not a problem.
But they leave a sticky deposit over my plants and where their eggs are the leaves turn a dead brown colour.
I was thinking of spraying them with a garlic, black pepper and tabasco solution but Im not sure that this will do the job as their not really eating the plants. Any suggestions would be rocking!

there is a gentle soap spray you can use.
I used it and I picked them off by close examination with my fingers.
they were hard to see but stupid.
after 2 weeks they were gone.
sometimes a nursery is infested and all their plants are affected.
