Try this, Very Hot Chillies 2 - 3 and Garlic1 -2 cloves crush both to release their oils. Boil Garlic and Chillies in a litre / gallon of water then when cold mixed with a couple of drops of dish washing liquid, it also helps to leave mixture over night, strain then pour into a spray bottle.



Spray in the afternoon or early evening.

Get a spray bottle. Put some dish soap in it, and fill with water.



Spray all over the vine.
