Outdoor Growing in a Tropical Region

Gets to be a big problem when buds are big and dense.
Bugs?
The usual suspects.
Leafminers, thrips, borg, bud worms, white fly, fungus gnats.
There's also a moth that hatches a tiny, 3/4", green, caterpiggle.
It burrows into da buds and eats the base of sugar leafs.
Then poops, which starts a brown rot that ruins the bud.
First sign is a brown, dead, sugar leaf in a healthy looking bud, that detatches when ya tug on it.
A healthy plant and natural predators will handle most of it.
I just found out that whiteflies laugh at no pest strips and spraying anything else just knocks down their natural curbs.
Use yellow sticky whitefly traps outdoors.
An oscillating fan indoors will annoy them and roust them until they land on the traps.
Then there's ratbastard rustlers!
I've turned my greenhouse into a security cage with an alarm and IR cameras.
