Keeping Bugs off Plants

To help keep the worms and leaf eating bugs off your garden plants use jalapeno peppers, boil and strain, put the pepper "broth" in about a gallon of warm water and spray plants, this is a very safe bug repellant. Use about 6-8 peppers to a quart of water.

WOW, I hope this will kill worms in my apple tree?
I just cut down high but empty new webworm tents
and fear they've already begun to eat some of the
tree/fruit? I will get on it quickly and pray that it will work without making the fruit "hot". lol God bless you. : )
