1 mi piaceThat’s why I thought they were aphids, but there’s 900 ways to apparently get rid of them and I’m trying to find the one that works!
2 Mi piaceWhat about plain ole neem? It should kill the aphids, while fertilizing your plant…. Spray, that is!
1 mi piaceAbsolutely, aphids. Very common this time of year on peppers and other things. Give the leaves and stems a firm spray of water, probably every time you water for a while until they're gone.

To keep bugs away from my plants I literally remove it from the soil it’s in. Spray my plants down really good in the sink then I take some hydrogen peroxide and spray the roots (it doesn’t hurt them and it’ll disinfect them. Then I take some neem oil, a cup or 2 of water and a little bit of rubbing alcohol, and dish soap into a spray bottle shake it up and spray the leaves and stems, take a microfiber cloth and rub that plant down, Then repot into new soil. It keeps away the bugs and you’ll see how shiny and new your leaves will look. Hope this helps ☺️
