Dear Botanists,

I am growing Luffa plants and have noticed small green scaley looking 
insects on the undersides of the leaves. Can anyone suggest how to 
irradicate these pests without the use of chemical pesticides. It has 
been suggested that I rub the affected areas with garlic!

Any ideas would be very much appreciated. Thank You.

Jason.
