To treat a pest infestation, the affected Peperomia must be isolated from other plants, and the worst affected leaves and stems must be trimmed. Neem oil can be used to treat pests, and the plant should be sprayed with an insecticidal spray or neem oil. The pH of the soil can also be a factor in causing peperomia leaves to turn yellow. When the soil is too acidic or alkaline, the roots cannot absorb the essential nutrients needed for h e althy growth. This can cause the leaves to turn yellow, as the plant cannot process and use the necessary nutrients. If your Peperomia plant has yellow leaves due to natural aging, the best thing to do is monitor the yellowing rate to determine if it is speeding up. If the rate of yellowing is increasing, then it is likely that some other factor is causing the yellowing.
