I have a pepper plant that has bugs that seem to be aphids. I need a remedy without using harmful chemicals.?

Answer 1

A very week solution of soap and water. If your into alternatives besides pesticides check out Jerry Bakers books. the stuff in his books works 100%

Answer 2

Sunflowers attract ladybugs that will eat those aphids. I had an aphid infestation on my roses last year that just decimated my roses. This year some volunteer sunflowers from my bird feeder grew up next to those same roses. I had beautiful roses this year because the sunflowers attracted ladybugs which ate the aphids.

Answer 3

Pour water over them to knock them off. (no longer warm water!) Use a hose if available. seem for some ladybugs on different plant life so which you will transplant them on your rose tree. They love the little aphids and could wipe them out suited away. learn Neem Oil because it kills a lot of bugs with the aid of being absorbed into the plant then into the bugs as they suck the juices.

Answer 4

REAL EASY! Buy a spray bottle, put about 4 table spoons of regular liquid dish soap in it and fill with water. Shake and you have a 'clean' all porpose bug killer. Wasps, aphids, box elder bugs, ants, whatever sprayed and soaked gets suffocated by the soap. That simple.

Answer 5

go to an old store and get some chewing tobacco that comes in a twist. Shred up the tobacco and put it in several layers of cheese cloth, add hot water, make a "tea." Let this tea get pretty strong. Filter the liquid to get any solids out of it, put it in a pump up sprayer and no bugs will get into your peppers. Also good for other flowers, rose bushes, etc.

If you happen to think you are wasting chewing tobacco, stand on a ladder, chew the tobacco, and spit on the peppers.

Answer 6

I presumed it is the hot variety and if it has fruits, take a handful, grind them and mix with about a gallong of water. Add about 1 tablespoon of dishwashing soap. Mix. Sprinkle it on the whole plants. Before you know it, Aphids is no more. Adios, Arevediche!

Answer 8

Ladybugs!!!

You can buy them in bags of 100 or so at your local nursery. They'll stay long enough to eat all of the aphids, then fly off to someone else's garden.

You can make a nontoxic spray with a little dish soap and water and spraying your plants daily until it is time to harvest, then just wash your peppers well before eating.
