One of the tried and tested tactics for pest control is by familiarizing yourself with famous insects and animals. These enemies of the garden will really hamper the growth of your crop only if you let them. 

Beetles

You have two options for beetles: manually remove them by hand or spray them with an insecticide that is poisonous to them. If left untreated, beetles have the capacity to bore so many holes in your leaves and eat away at your vegetation over time, especially when their population has already burgeoned. Beetles come in a variety of types, but the remedy for it is usually the two techniques mentioned above. 

Aphids

You will often find sticky groups of insects that are invading your garden in hues of red if you have aphids in your garden. Fortunately, you can easily remedy this by spraying it with soap insecticide, or any similar material. Aphids are common to almost every garden vegetable you can possibly imagine, so if you are growing vegetables, you are most likely to encounter these sticky organisms. 

Cabbage Worms

Neem oil is the cabbage worms' worst enemy, so if you spray them with it, they will be out of your garden in a jiffy. The thing is, you can determine whether cabbage worms are in the garden if you find green caterpillars and holes in the leaves of your plants. You can also pick them up by hand if you are more courageous or maybe spray them with insecticide if you don't have neem oil handy at the time of infestation. 

Cut Worms

If you see crawling, dull caterpillars that are brown in color, then you have found cutworms invading your territory! Placing paper collars around plants after digging around the area may help prevent cutworms from taking up your precious soil and nutrients. Some chemicals may also work like insecticides, but this is a general cure. You also need to dig a lot because the cutworms have this tendency to snuggle up on your plants for shade and life. 

Maggots

Maggots are extremely disgusting, and they tend to make your landscape ugly if you do not try to get rid of them. Bleaching is one of the best ways to get rid of maggots. If your organic garden is also situated beside a garbage bag, you may choose to transfer your garbage bag elsewhere because leftover meals like meat tend to attract these maggots and they might decide to branch out of the garbage bin and into your garden. 

There are many other kinds of pests that you can control in your garden given the right handy tools and knowledge on how to best eliminate them from your organic garden.
