I do have an abundance of Assasin bugs this year and I am wondering if they are taking a toll on the whiteflies. They must be feeding on something.

Wow! If that's the case, I want assasin bugs too!
I have 54 plants but you only need to put them out every 4 feet or so to be effective. I get them at Amazon and they are cheap, $13 for 15 and each card lasts the entire season. I get 2 packs to get the free shipping. I know you aren't particularly interested, but if it is OK I am posting the link in case others may be. It cut down on my Neem spraying to almost nothing, so I love them.
