Washing up liquid diluted in a spray bottle, leave for a couple of minutes and then hose off.
Plant a clove of Garlic alongside the rosebush.....it will put into the compost/soil a 'chemical' which when absorbed by the rose bush will ward-off greenfly.....and as a reward you'll grow a full bulb of garlic to use in the kitchen.
