Check tomato plants weekly for signs or symptoms of tomato psyllids. You may be able to control a light infestation if plants are treated early. Most pest control products used in home gardens or greenhouses have not been evaluated for psyllid control, but some information is available.
Many gardeners prefer to use organic products. Ultra fine oil (Safer Sun Spray and similar products) provide relatively good control of the psyllid in greenhouse studies but insecticidal soap is not as effective. Sprays containing an extract of neem oil (Greenlight Neem Concentrate) help control a variety of garden pests and may also work on tomato psyllid. Oils and soaps kill pests on contact so you must spray all plant surfaces including the undersides of leaves to control psyllid. Applications of sulfur dust also help deter psyllids, but sulfur may harm tomatoes if oil is applied later.
Broad sprectrum insecticides like malathion will kill tomato psyllids, but frequent use also harms beneficial insects and this may allow other pests like spider mites and leaf miners to build up. The insecticide carbaryl (Sevin) should not be used to control psyllids because it can cause the pest population to increase.

It depends if my child were to be a harm to other people after myself. If my child were to to just kill me, no. I value my child's life over my own. While at the same time, I value my child's life over a stranger's life, I could not allow the child to do intentional harm to an innocent, I would have to go against every fiber of my being and stop my child. I am an atheist, I am also a humanist. I value life, my child's life is of the utmost importance to me. But, if my child's intention to kill innocent people, I could not let it happen. Because there are things more important than my feelings.
