well, there is insecticidal soap and there is neem. But honestly, I have bought vegetable starts from the places I named, mostly Garden Exchange, and not had any significant problems. Of course my garden has lots of bugs. I leave it all alone and let the ecology balance itself out. Not everything makes it, but that's OK. I limit myself to a few crops here. In California I grew much more variety.
