Ecologically safe insect deterrent that will wash off the veggies and herbs: garlic juice (press the garlic, or smash it well, then put the whole thing in the jar or sprayer bottle), hot pepper sauce (from your local ethnic store), water, a few drops of biodegradable soap. Combine, put in bottom of sprayer bottle, shake and apply. If the garlic ferments a little, it's still good.
