Hi Amanda. How did this work for you? I have had the same thought re broadleaf thyme. I have just taken the fresh leaf and scrunched it up in my hands and put around the plant with aphids.
Well it didn't work as quickly as I imagine it should do, I think over time it will help repel some insects from laying their eggs rather than getting rid of them once they have got a hold. I was thinking if you could extract the oils then it would have a better effect.
