Neem oil so bad for the environment, that Canada has banned its import and use. Can use neem cake as a food top dress to impart the same insect repelling qualities.

Plain water will work just fine that’s how I get rid of them ,I also do see a lot of dead ones ,the white ones are carcasses ,is it possible you have something that’s predatory eating them already ? With that many dead I suspect you do ,and this has been going on a while with the amount of live ones I see ,I usually only get them very early in the outdoor season and don’t even bother trying to get rid of them as the predators show up hungry eventually
Thanks for tagging me @Low

Interesting as that’s exactly what I see left behind by lacewings and pirate bugs after they have sucked the juices 
out lol
Also
Not disagreeing with you in any way just going by what I have observed many times ,those white ones look like they were once larger and got their guts sucked out

Hit bugs or mold with wettable sulfur. It’s like a nuke went off. Dead carcasses everywhere, every time.

If you find a particularly large aphid that looks like it’s dying (turns brownish, then grayish), it’s because it got bitten by a parasitic wasp. They literally grow inside the aphid then bust out a of a hole they make… It’s actually really cool and I wish there would be enough wasps to take care of a bunch of aphids.
