Should I mix the oil with water or some other carrier?

Yes, you can mix the neem oil with water plus a little soap to allow the oil and water to mix. Add approximately four teaspoons of neem oil per gallon of water, plus a few squirts of mild dish soap. Simply shake and spray.
Also, it’s best to apply in the early morning or evening to avoid burning the foliage in the bright sunlight.
