When I met Dr. Bosland in Santa Fe, he told me I could just isolate one
branch or even one or two individual flower buds using a paper bag or fine
mesh cloth avail at fabric stores, and twist ties.  Be sure and leave the
twist tie on the plant when you remove the bag after the pepper forms! Then
save seeds from just those pods.  

There is also a garden fabric called remay and others that you can  use to
cage the whole plant, but watch out for bug infestations like aphids under
the mesh.
