The seeds of Neerium indicum plants are good insect and pest repellents for a variety of crops. You can dry the seeds for 2-3 days, powder them and mix it in 9-10 litres of water along with some khadi soap solution and leave it overnight.
You can get Khadi soap from any Khadi gramodya Bhavan. The mixture can be sprayed the next day. It acts as an effective control against a wide variety of pests and infestations.
