Chili and Garlic Spray?

Has anyone tried to use a chili pepper and garlic spray to kill and control insects? You would steep the chili peppers and garlic for several days before spraying the plant.

I use that combo for deer repellent w/ a little egg & milk. For bugs neem oil is only thing I use. A friend of mine commented on the chili & garlic...... " the deer just think it Mexican night" . This year it's 5' tomato cages

Ive used cayyenne pepper around my plants (veggies) in the garden, just shaking straight from the bottle after a water. I suppose if u mixed it, itd work even better lol

I only spray my plants with plain ph balanced water or res water.

I saute them rather than steep them. Throw in some minced onion, a little salt and pepper... I'm not sure these have the same effect on insects that they have on us humans.

Thanks for the great contribution!! This is the kind of stuff we need more of - real information.

Just get some sevins man, once a week during veg making sure to spray undersides of leaves and you'll be good during flowering.
