To cure this problem, 400 g roots of oleander (Nerium indicum) are cut into the small pieces and then soaked in 150 ml of water. In this water, 20 g powder of turmeric (Curcuma longa) is added and paste is prepared. This paste is applied on the pest affected branch of coffee (Coffea arabica) crop. As a result, the pests come out and die. Whole plant of oleander is poisonous in nature. Its poisonous effect is known historically. It is recorded that the soldiers of Napoleon were also given this poison in one of the battles. (library.thikquest.org/coo7974/1-11101e.html)
