How can i get pests to stay away?

I transplanted these bell pepper plants a couple of days ago, so i know the plants are stressed, but how do i keep bugs from eating them? I had them in a raised garden bed before moving them and they werent being eaten before.

The plant appears healthy.

Honestly, you got really lucky with a raised garden bed because usually raised garden beds are for better drainage not to deter bugs lol A friend of mine owns a lawn company and turned me onto this when I started a garden a few years back, and I have lived by this ever since the smaller bottle tends to run out quicker so I would recommend getting this if you have a decent size garden. This kills thousands and thousands of insects and bugs. It works for me and promotes health for your plants/veggies etc

Also, my bottle in my picture looks a little different because it sat in the sun, and the words came off lol but its call sevin and has bolds letter on the Front, I spray it everywhere!! And you can notice a difference within a day or so youd be surprised how many bugs and flies and pesticides are on your plants when you spray it at night over a light you can watch them fly away. Its pretty neat to watch.

In a spray bottle filled with water at a little knee oil, and a couple drops of dish soap. Shake it real well. I like to use a continuous spray bottle. Just keep it on hand give it a good shake every time before you use it Lightly mist your plants in the evening, or early morning.👌

u can get beneficials to keep them in check

Im not sure what order these will go in, but if you look at the close-up picture, you can see all the pests that are surrounded and covered my cherry tree I used sevin, late last week in the other two pictures are from just now and theres no bugs on it still!!! And you cant spray too much of it on your plant either it will not harm anything cept bugs and pests
