Try sprinkling your Okra or any other plants with talcum powder.It is an organic alternative to harmful pesticides. Try a product called Diatomaceous earth. Its sold at most gardening places and will deter ants from the plant if sprinkled around the base of the stalk. It works because it consists of fossilized diatoms. One celled fossils, that if magnified look like porcupines. Ants have segmented bodies and these points irritate the ants bodies where the segments meet to where they do not return. Its safe to handle with the bare hands, 100% organic and is not poisonous.
