    Dish soap diluted in water also works and is pollinator friendly.

    Just a little bit of soap, a few drops in an old cleaner spray bottle filled with water should do it. Too much and you risk sun-burning the plants.

      Yeah, when I first started growing peppers I did this and nearly killed a bunch of plants because I used too much.

      It only takes a tiny bit and works wonders.
