General Appearance
Mentha worked very well on flea beetles .... (219)
I also tried mentha for flea beetles. I had them on my cabbages and black beets. The leaves were full of holes, looked terrible. I used Mentha piperita because it is the only one I had. It worked very well, the beetles disappeared and have stayed away since then .... I noticed a difference between both plants. The black beets were free of beetles but didn't show any other significant difference. The cabagges changed, they became "healthy", their colour was more intense and the leaves stronger, like they had received a tonic. (220)

Stem/trunk and bark - capillary system
 
Leaves
I had flea beetles eating holes in the leaves of my eggplant, sunflower, and cucumber plants. After consulting Kaviraj's Homeopathy for Farm and Garden, I sprayed them with a solution of Mentha Viridis. Now about 10 days later, they're looking much more vital and the new leaves show no signs of attack by the flea beetles. (189)
I sowed a row of Chinese Greens which sprouted very well and then got eaten almost immediately by those buggers. Treated with 1 dose mentha, as per Kaviraj's recommendations and saved about 10 plants which have been doing beautifully. (768)

Notes and Academic Papers
It was observed that the medicament O. gratissimum and M. piperita was effective in interfering on the insect life-cycle. The drug O. gratissimum and M. piperita in growth solution insects increase the average number of larvae and mosquitoes. (1739)
