There is an online world wide site called citrus in containers which is really helpful with advice. As stated it is worldwide so loads of answers given so I always just add UK just to lessen the number of responses, but generally still loads. Good Luck, I'd be interested to know your answer, I have not be bothered with this little gits to date on either of my trees but just in case.

The return of the greenfly and whitefly, is often down to more eggs hatching out, so if you can repeat your washing and squashing treatment, you should beat them….
Kind Regards, Old Herbaceous.
