Greenhouse Cleaning Question?

21 years ago

I'm getting ready to empty out GH and give it good cleaning. I have some raised beds (about 24" deep) that I was growing tomatoes and peppers in. I had a terrible aphid and whitefly battle going on in there for a few months. Question is...after i finish cleaning, if i close up GH completely and let it get really hot inside, will it kill any aphids and whitefly eggs that may have been left behind? Do aphids and whiteflies lay any eggs in soil, and if so will those be killed or do i need to do something to it? I am trying to avoid the battle continuing in the fall.

Thanks,

Peggy
