These plants are to be considered as vegetables, therefore in case of parasites we should use agricultural parasiticides; before harvesting the leaves of the treated plants let’s wait for the product not to be active anymore. These plants are grown in apartment or in a temperated green house; they can be brought outdoors when the minimum temperatures are above 15° C.The Black pepper should be preferably located in a place where it can have at least a few hours a day of direct solar light.

As the day-time temperatures rise at the beginning of the spring, it is agreeable to practice a preventive treatment, with a wide-range insecticide, which should be applied when there aren’t flowerings in the garden. Before the buds become too large, it is advisable to also treat them with a wide-range fungicide, to prevent the development of fungal diseases which spread easily when there is an elevated environmental moisture.
