No magic potion. A good contact insecticide sprayed often will help. If you are looking for Organic. There are a few options but they require more frequent spraying.

Using garlic products will help repel a lot of bugs. Then keep scouting and apply the contact insecticides according to label instructions. The key is to get them before they get too bad.
