Good morning guys. I am having the issue of pest infestation in my small home garden.

I grow the following items as a hobby, water leaf, ugu, bitter leaf, and ego tete. However, I have not had much success with efo tete (green). Once they sprouts, I think army worms that eating them. In about a year of trying, I have eaten my green only thrice. I just cleared the last batch yesterday because of infestation.

I am beginning to notice the same thing on my bitter leaf. Something is seriously eating up the leafs and the same black eggs I see on my greens are now on the bitter leafs.

Please recommend a good organic pesticide for me. I consume what I produce often. Note: I don't have access to neem extract.

Thanks.

You can try wood ash.

look for neem oil in agro shops around you. you can also check the profile of @ organicfoods. he has a thread on how to prepare your homemade pesticides.

Rabbit urine is also very good, but it has to be diluted with water though.

Light sprinkle on the leaves, a bit like dusting the leaves. You can put more on the soil around the plants. Careful don't add too much at one time, it can raise the soil pH.
