White balls tend to be tobacco moths laying eggs. Can't see clear enough in the pic though to confirm.

I netted off my plants this year to avoid the bigger insects. I still got thrips because they could get through the netting. However, I released ladybugs to deal with them and the netting keeps them in so they have no where to go and can focus on eating the bad guys. I also released nematodes into the soil. Neem during veg, along with spinosad. Mosquito netting and frame is pretty cheap (and reuseable) compared to buying bottle after bottle of insecticide.

How about some Hummingbird feeders the more the merrier, if you have them in your area this time of the year Hummingbirds that is lol Nice natural way to help out.
Their preferred insects include, but are not limited to: small beetles, true bugs, weevils, flies, gnats, mosquitoes, aphids, mites, leafhoppers, flying ants, and parasitic wasps. Their favorite insect food source is the spider and harvestmen (daddy long legs). 80 percent of their diet is insects and spiders.
