Does anyone know what the formula mix is for pyola? I have it, but cant find how much to mix with gal to 2 gals of water. Thought it would be on the bottle but its not. I came with a pamplet that I look all over for, but cant find it. My roses are being eaten alive with aphids, and I use the soap and water method, it didnt work there back, Dont know were the ladybugs are this year. Does anyone have the answer. Thankyou

I don't know about the pyola stuff you are talking about. As far as the soap and water for aphids you have to be persistant. Need to spray and then a few hours later wash off with water. Catlover

For soft-bodied insects like aphids and mites, and for use as a dormant spray, mix 2 teaspoons of Pyola concentrate with 1 quart of water. Apply when daytime temperatures are above 35oF but below 90oF. Spray plants thoroughly until they are completely wet. Repeat in 1 - 2 weeks if needed.
