You can spray a Mix of 2 to 4 tablespoons of concentrate neem oil with 1 gallon of water to control sap-sucking insects, such as aphids, thrips, spider mites and whiteflies. Cover all plant surfaces with the mixture until thoroughly wet.
ifyou have slugs/snails crawling up them, crush up some egg shells into small-ish pieces and put around the base of the plant.
or you can dissolve Epsom salt in water and spray it on and around the plant
