Nothing will help out of folk methods. Before each new cycle, the box must be disinfected. And sterilize the soil at high temperatures. On vegetation, you can use a contact insecticide, not systemic, which is absorbed into the plant. Good luck!šŸ¤

Sadly bugs are always a worry when using soil as a medium. A lot of pests hate hot peppers. Grind up some ghost peppers or scotch bonnets and make a shake. Give each plant a healthy dose. See if that helps..
