Insects die quickly by spraying mild liquid soap mixed with water. It especially affects those insects which hide under the leaves.
Garlic and Pepper Spray: Spicy Cure
Grind garlic and green chilli, mix it in water, filter and spray. Its strong smell keeps insects away and the plants remain safe.
use of baking soda
Baking soda helps prevent fungal infections. Mix it in water and spray it on the plants, which reduces the spots and insects on the leaves.

Make a light solution of vinegar and water and spray it around the plants. This helps keep insects away, but be careful not to apply too much directly on the plants.
