Natural Pesticide For Chilli Plants

What are the pests to chilli plants?

When you’re growing chillies, it’s important to keep an eye out for pests. A pest is any organism that eats your plants and prevents them from reaching their full potential. Pests can be insects, mites, nematodes (roundworms), birds, slugs or snails. Some pests are beneficial like ladybugs; others are harmful like aphids.

How to get rid of aphids?

Aphids are small insects that suck the sap from the leaves, stems and flowers of chilli plants. They produce a sticky honeydew substance which encourages sooty mould growth. Aphids can transmit viruses between plants.

Aphids are generally easier to control on young plants than older ones as they are more susceptible to adverse environmental conditions such as drought or low temperatures.

How to control beetles?

There are a number of beetles that can be found on chilli plants. Flea beetles, leaf miners and root borers are just some of the insects that can cause damage to your chili crop. Other beetles include the asparagus beetle, which feeds on young plants and can also transmit viruses between plants.

How to control borers?

Borers are insects that destroy the pith of chilli plants. They damage the stem and bore into it, but they don’t get inside the fruit. Borers can be identified by their eggs which are laid in a mass on top of a damaged area on the plant’s stem.

To control borers:

• Rotate your plants every season so they do not grow in the same place each year
• Remove all yellowed leaves from your plants regularly to reduce number of pests and diseases attacking them
• Check for pests regularly, as soon as you see signs of damage treat quickly with natural pesticides

How to control froghoppers?

You can control froghoppers with neem oil, hot pepper spray and pyrethrum.

Neem oil is an all-natural pesticide that can be applied to plants or soil as a preventative measure against pests and diseases. It’s an effective natural way to control insects, including froghopper larvae, without harming your plants.

Hot pepper spray works because of the capsaicin present in chili peppers; it causes irritation when it comes into contact with insects like froghoppers that come into direct contact with it. While this method is low-cost and easy to use (you just need some extra hot peppers), there are some downsides: firstly, you’ll have to wait for the chili peppers to dry out before using them in order for their capsaicin content to reach its highest point; secondly, you’ll need quite a lot of them if you want your plant protected from harm; lastly but most importantly…your chillies will taste awful! Because of this last point we recommend keeping any leftover hot peppers outside of your kitchen area so you don’t accidentally eat them yourself! And if someone does eat one then they should drink plenty of water immediately afterwards so as not get burne

How to control thrips?

Thrips are tiny insects that feed on the sap of plants, causing damage to the leaves and fruit. The black spots on chilli plants are caused by thrips.

There are a number of ways to control them:

• Use a strong jet of water to dislodge them from the leaves. This can be done in several ways, such as with a hosepipe or watering can that has been fitted with a fine spray attachment (you don’t want any chemicals getting onto your food). If there is only one or two thrips present then they will fall off when sprayed; if there is more than this then you should remove all affected leaves immediately so that they don’t spread their infestation further into your plantings.
• Remove leaf litter and other debris from near the base of your plants regularly so that there isn’t any hiding place for these pests where they can breed and thrive without being seen by humans. This includes removing old crop debris at harvest time too – don’t leave it lying around!

How to control whiteflies?

Whiteflies are tiny insects that suck the sap from plants, causing leaves to yellow and die. They are most often found on the underside of leaves. The easiest way to control them is with soapy water. Simply mix one tablespoon of dish soap per gallon of warm water and spray your plant thoroughly with it. If you have a large number of plants or an infestation increasing in severity, apply insecticidal soap instead; this will kill any surviving adults while they’re laying eggs as well as larvae already present on the plant. Commercial pesticides can be used on large areas as well; Horticultural oil works well against whiteflies, but neem oil is even more effective at killing both adults and larvae alike! If you don’t want to use harsh chemicals in your garden (or if they’re not allowed at your location), plant marigolds around tender crops like peppers: these flowers attract pollinators while repelling pests such as whiteflies by emitting natural oils into the air around them which repel other insects looking for food sources elsewhere on nearby plants

You can make your own natural pesticide for chilli plants.

You can make your own natural pesticide for chilli plants using a soapy water solution, garlic or onion solution, eggplant leaf solution and chilli solution. These are effective because they contain the naturally occurring compounds in those plants that repel pests.

Neem oil is also an effective natural pesticide for chilli plants as it has insecticidal properties and is non-toxic to mammals.
