Organic Pesticides

Anyone know of an organic pesticide that is safe for use on a lime tree and in the soil? I have found small whitish see thru worms/larva in the soil. I have also found a couple aphids and lots of gnats that hover around the leaves. Another reason I would like to know is when it comes time to move my tree inside for the winter, I would like to kill the bugs instead of bring them into my house....(not a bug fan at all). Thanks!
