organic garden spray

If by 'Organic' you mean something that has been alive, like a tree, as
opposed to something that has not, like granite, then here's a real
easy one that actually works.
Get a pound of fag ends, pour boiling water over them, strain the
liquid, then
dilute a bit more and spray. Don't eat crops for 1 week as it won't do
you much good, but after then the spray will have broken down and is
harmless.
This will shift just about any bug that crawls or flies.

Do this with great caution as the nicotine extract you produce will be quite
toxic to humans and pets as well as garden pests. In this sense such
"organic" sprays have the same problems as the toxic synthetics. That is you
can poison yourself and beneficial creatures as quickly as the harmful ones.
There is nothing inherently safe about poisons derived from natural sources
nor inherently dangerous about those that come from factories. What matters
is how, when and where you use them and the qualities of the particular
substance, not whether it is "natural". Whatever that means.
