Any non chemical solutions?

Yea same thing here seen a big bunch of them, i think they like the cooler weather or something.

Same here after the cooler, and wetter weather. They swarmed off the plants when you brush it. I also saw an lace wing egg and the swarm is much smaller now.

They hit my bhut plant like a nuke 2 weeks ago had a good 100+ peppers I planed to harvest 80% of them rotted inside due to the disease the damn flying aphids spread.

Whiteflys are attracted to the color yellow. Buy some plastic yellow solo cups from the store and brush the outside of them with motor oil cheap and effective.

Watch your plants like a hawk!!! If they are landing on your plants, then you need to take a plan of action! You could try a neem oil and dish soap with water spray solution if you want to go all natural, maybe a touch of garlic. I think I remember seeing bugs dont like garlic.?
