What you are looking for are Garlic Sprays. Habanero is the best type of pepper to use in the spray since it is so hot. Here is the link.

You can also add about an ounce of orange oil for more kick but be careful orange oil is a nonselective killer.
Hope this Helps,

WARNING! Wear latex gloves when working with those habaneros and take them off prior to scratching, adjusting or anything else. Common sense for most people I'm sure, but man it's a painful rule to forget.. :x

Any of the worms can also be controlled with BT spray.

| I agree with dcuck about wearing gloves when touching habenero peppers. Last fall I picked the last of my peppers then took a shower. About an hour later I scratched my face and it started to burn. And boy does it hurt when it burns. So be very careful when handling them. |
