Cloves are easy to be infected with brown spot and black spot. First, the diseased leaves should be treated, the diseased leaves should be cut off, and then the diseased leaves should be collected and destroyed. Second, spray the fungicides such as chlorothalonil and carbendazim in time after the onset of the disease. Insect pests mainly include aphids, leafhopping beetles and so on. Once insect pests are found, they need to be dealt with immediately. If the number is small, first remove some of the insects artificially and spray them.
