Hi Kev, I have tried milk with a few drops of natural liquid soap and that works quite well, if there only a few spots on each leaf. I have also read that neem oil is good, but haven't tried that yet. This year I had little time so I just cut off the worst affected leaves and treated the rest and that seems to have worked fairly well. But, I am no expert, just my experience so far. Good luck, Sharon
