Theo is a gardener tending to his plants. He makes sure to apply an organic insecticide to all of his plants except his coffee plants. Why does Theo skip his coffee plants

Coffee contains a natural insecticide known as xanthines.

Explanation:

Coffee contains xanthines, a purine base chemical that functions as a drug precursor in some medications and as an ingredient in the manufacture of pesticide.
