Does anyone out there have any suggestions for keeping ants and other pest away from my Okra that is Organic? I looked through the Forums and got lost real quick. I have Adhd so it didn't take long. Anyway, Ant's on my Okra, help? Thank you girls.

Tanya: This afternoon I noticed several very small ant on our okra as we were picking them. Not all of the okra had ants. I just shook them off, and they all came off. Of course, I let them soak in cold water and rinsed them twice.
Have you found anything to deter them?

A landscaper told me that spreading used coffee grounds around plants will kill ants. It has worked in our garden and lawn.
