Organic bug spray for lime tree?


Question:I am totally new to gardening and have a potted dwarf lime tree and cherry tomato plant in my backyard.
What can I use that's organic to keep bugs away?

Answers:
Depends what bugs are bothering it.

Different bugs; different treatments.

If you keep ALL "bugs" away from your plants, the flowers will not be pollinated, and you'll have to try your hand at doing it manually.

Many soft-bodied insects are killed by simple insecticidal soap. They are commerical preparations with an active ingredient of potassium salts of fatty acids.

If the bigs eating/attacking your plants are something else, they may need a different spray, or treatment.
