When I was watering my Vietnamese peppers yesterday I noticed a few of them are covered with aphids. They are in 5-gallon pots. I sprayed them with liquid sea weed last night. I thought that using water my dislodge them from the plant. Any suggestions for an organic method to get rid of these pest? I have some Safer's Garden brand organic insecticide aswell as Neem concentrate. Or should I pot them up to address the source of the problem? Perhaps they are too rootbound in the pots?
