Sometimes but not always, some pests love hot pepper spray and you have to
repeat applications all the time!
Companion planting works much better.
Try to encourage beneficial insects or use a wash of safe dish washing
detergent to control them.

I have tried many hot pepper sprays and find they simply don't perform how
they say they should not to mention the hassle of constant application
required. Now if you are looking to discourage animals they work, but
planting them and rubbing a crushed one around works better!

Will spraying the leaves of my plants keep leaf-eating bugs away from
them?
