I normally don't have a problem with insects. This year my Mexican Butterfly Weed, Asclepias curassavica, is being eaten up by aphids. The Monarchs are trying to lay eggs. I tried blasting with water and used a soap solution but they just came right back. So my question is, can I use malathion without hurting the butterfly eggs, or the butterflies for that matter?
