I have checked the results with the mix of water, alcohol, detergent and a cigaret butt sparyed with a simple spray flask against aphids, white fly and mini mosquitos (smaller than fruit flies) that has larvie that eats bulbs.
This was sprayed on crocus tulips magnolia and hibiscus.
Non of the plant seemed to be harmed and the aphids and the white fly died, but the mini mosquitos survived
