Diatomaceous earth is the best! It is a natural silica rock that is ground into a fine powder. It is non toxic to humans or pets. You can sprinkle it right on the base of the plant or around the plant. Bugs have to walk on it to kill them and don't let it get wet, it is not effective when it is wet. You can also spray pests with soapy water, but it is more labor intensive.
