How to clean Neem Oil from the sprayer?
How do you do it? When I cleaned it out of my 1 gallon sprayer, it just ruins the brush. I tried leaving the brush in vinegar but that didn't remove the oil from the bristles.
I've done a neem treatment using my hose end sprayer and it cleans easier but still has that greasy feeling. I've been using Yucca as the spreading / wetting agent. Thanks for your advice, Barb |

Like said above Dawn. If you can't use Dawn do to Organic constraints Dr. Bronner's or another Organic type of soap should work as well.
