Dysiston available at nurseries. Sprinkle around plant, water in. Systemic insecticide taken up by roots into plant. Bug bites plant and dies. stinks, but works well for all bugs.

Whiteflies are a sucking insect. They reproduce fast and can do a lot of damage. I suggest Safer's Insecticidal Soap. The trick is to spray the entire plant, including the undersides of the leaves. Repeat in a week to get any new hatches. Watch carefully and repeat if necessary, but a couple of applications ought to do it.

I will suggest u a natural way.
If u can source neem seed powder, mix them with water and spray the solution over your plants. You can get rid of any insects that ll harm your plant!
You can also spread neem leaves over the base of the stem, so that even ants will not come.

A friend of mine suggested mild soapy water when watering. Spraying the plants with soapy water also repels insects. It works.

I have learned from my grandmother to mix 1/4 cup of "tide laundry detergent" (but it must be the powder form.) in a half gallon spray bottle. Gentle mist the plants.It also works great on roses with aphids. Works for me, and I hope it helps you out.

white flies are tough to get rid of ...I believe that you have to spray at least twice..about 10 day apart...if it's a smallish plant you might get better results by tying it into a clear plastic bag and spraying the inside and leaving it for a while.

spray the leaves with a mixture of liquid dish soap and water. Not real strong though
