If you got white flies, go after them fast once they get established they are a real pain to get rid off, active compost tea claims to be a deterrent to white flies/ aphids....check it out.

I don't want to discourage anyone from using CT but where is the peer reviewed efficacy data supporting claims of White Fly control?

Yes, Neem or Neem II (with pyrethrins) works great if applied diligently once a week.
See this thread also for my post about a homemade sticky trap that helps too:
