I read somewhere to mix 1 cup of flour with a tablespoon of cayenne pepper and dust the veggies with it to repel cabbage worms and the hot pepper is to repel other insects. Anyone ever try this or have a different recipe? I dont use chemicals.

Something is chewing on my pole bean leaves, pepper plant leaves and green bush bean leaves. The garden is fenced in.

Sorry all. Posted in the wrong place. I just moved this to the gardening forum.
