It's very odd that neem oil seems to be so effective for everyone else but I tried it multiple times on my plants that had aphids, white flies and mealy bugs and it didn't do anything!

That is odd!!

I have found that I have to be very vigilant in the spraying regimen, every 5 days faithfully, and it takes 4 applications to eradicate the bugs.

I've been told that there are some products that have neem in them but do not do the trick. You must have just Neem oil. Threegardeners do you know if that's correct? Maybe that was CaptMicha's problem?

I used products with neem, not 100% neem. I wonder why that is. It also contained chrysanthemum extract.

That might have been the problem. It needs to be a high concentration of Neem. The one I use is 100% Neem.
