my source is ';from experience';. Never use bleach or you'll kill the plant. Weak detergents like joy (a tad of it only) in a LOT of water can give bugs diarrhea so they leave. Insecticide made specifically for house plants can be sprayed ';lightly'; on the underside of leaves and on the stalk only when you see bugs on them, and be sure to spray that when your plant is outdoors or you'll asphixiate yourelf. Don't use the insecticide if you have pets or children around as they might play with the leaves or eat them. There are special insecticides for outdoors, they are stronger and kill a lot of different kinds of bugs and they are usually put into a sprayer attached to your garden hose and you'll be using gloves when applying that. Again, be careful with that stuff when there are children and pets around, and don't use it on a hot day.What is the effect of home used bleach, washing detergent and insecticide on plants?
Sodium-based detergents (such as dish or laundry washing) will damage plant tissue. The insecticidal soaps (such as Safer's) are potassium-based and are not harmful to plants.





I would not use bleach on any plant. It might kill bugs, but it would damage the plant, too, so what is the point of using it?
