I use diluted neem oil on my plants to repel and kill pests. You can also use a diluted peroxide water mix to kill the pests.

좋아요 1개What do the bugs look like? Google "common houseplant pests" there is a lot of info on dealing with them but it helps to know what you've got

좋아요 1개Gnats aren't so bad! They're probably fungus gnats, they live in the soil. They don't hurt the plant. Some people have trouble with too many gnats but I haven't experienced that, I only get a few at a time. But I think you can get beneficial nematodes at most garden centers that will eat the gnat larvae, if you want.
