you can mix some chamomile tea and pour on soil& sometimes sprinkleing some sand on soil as like a top cover helps.also can make a spray useing 3% hydrogen peroxide mixed with some water and can spray it on.I've used on my hibiscus outdoors but since moveing further south seems to have left that problem up northeast TX
sorry....I'd rather have any plant I want& fix the white fly...LOL

Nearly all common houseplants are quite resistant to whiteflies. The best known exception is Hibiscus.

Perhaps you are confusing white fly with mealybug, which is a much more common indoor plant pest.
