OH MY GOSH! My gardens are loaded with thrips!!! Almost all my roses, especially the white/pastels are infested!

I removed all my beloved rose blossoms and sprayed with Safer 3 in 1 (that's what I had on hand). Should I use Orthonex or Neem or something better?

What else can I do? Can I save all the new buds on my roses, or must I cut them off too (noooooooo!)

ANY HELP WOULD BE SOOO APPRECIATED!

Thanks
Karen

Go to the rose forum! I think, if I'm not mistaken, a product called Merit helps, but they'll tell you real quick what to do.
