Any advice on natural pest repellent methods?

[MrNMrsBuds]

G'day,

New here, I tried searching but no results though I assume this has been asked before but does anyone have any natural pest repellent ideas that won't harm the plants?

Noticed today we are getting some small midgies, tiny spiders etc. Would like to get them away from the plants before they get the munchies ;)

Growing as organically/natural as possible for Medical use.

Cheers

NEEM OIL diluted spray the dirt and under the leaves. Mix tumeric dry spice and cinnamon equal parts as top dressing, bugs dont like it....try covering your ground it keeps bugs from going where they want. Jalapeno seed tea mixed w peppermint...

+1 On the essential oils.

I like orange, lemon, peppermint, rosemary, garlic oil etc. Can emulsify with biodegradable dish soap or dr bronners. Or you can buy an essential oil based product like SNS 209 or plant therapy that is already emulsified.

Spray early and often with good coverage. A good applicator will help a lot.
