You can look into neem oil and worm castings, I beleive

Thank you I will do so! Is there any cheaper remedies like anything I’m able to use at home by any chance ?🥺

You can try peroxide in the water. Just a small quantity to kill the eggs. When I had a nap problem though, I ended up just deciding to tackle the whole issue in one go. I repotted everything!!

Also, too, it is imperative that you are quarantine. New addition to your collection!!

I’ve had my Pothos for I believe two years now ? I’ve only ever chopped his vines once and they grew back so much healthier ! But yeah no this shocked me bc this is my very first gnat issue with my Pothos ! I appreciate the advice so freaking much thank you kindly ♥️♥️♥️
