I have little green bugs on the leaves of my green pepper plants, is that bad?
I recently noticed that there’s a lot of little green bugs on the leaves, are they bad for the plant and future produce? What should I do to get rid of them if they’re bad?

sounds like green fly, pop down to your local garden center.they will have a spray available to treat your plant.this is a very common infestation once treated your crop will be just fine.just a thought you could take a sample with you to the garden center they will be able to tell you what they are and the best course of action to take.good luck with your crop.

They are probably aphids and not good. You can mix a tablespoon of cyenne pepper with water in a spary bottle and spary the plants with the spray, and those little bugs will be gone. It will not affect the flaver of your green peppers as long as you wash them off well before eating.

Well, these little green bugs are aphids, and ladybugs LOVE them! If you have ladybugs in your yard or around your plants, not to worry!! Help is on the way! And aphids won't harm you if you eat the pepper plants, just wash them before you eat them! Good luck with your garden!
