How do you get rid of white flies?

[Staci in AZ]

I've only been gardening for a couple of years and I noticed these little white flying bugs all over my pumpkin and winter squash plants that I haven't seen before...also my pole beans. I'm assuming they are white flies? Not sure. How do I go about getting rid of them. They are eating up my baby bean plants. :(

Thanks for any advice!

A weekly hard spray with the hose gets rid of a lot. Insecticidal soap if you feel like using that is said to work well too.

Natural predators include lacewing,ladybugs, and praying mantids.You can also use yellow sticky traps near target plants to capture adults. Spray with neem,insecticidial soap for immediate control.Use garlic spray to repel whiteflies from plants,don't spray in the heat of day, may burn your plants.
