It may be that plain water works as well, but what I came up with for harlequins is backpack sprayer water treated with a few drops of essential oil of peppermint. A misty spritz down a leafy row with that stuff brings all the critters to the topside of the leaves, where you can effectively follow with a soap spray, or whatever. Adjusting the hardness of our spray water improved the effectiveness of soaps for us dramatically.
