I need help! My plant is infested with fruit flies and I don’t know how to get rid of them. We tried to use apple-cider vinegar & dish soap to attract them and we tried lime juice & dish soap, but neither worked. We tried to kill all of them before we realized how bad it was. How do we get rid of them?
If you see the fruit flies coming directly out of the soil & they aren’t responding to fruit fly traps they are probably actually fungus gnats! There are a lot of treatments, but so far I’ve been having good luck using Bonide Systemic Pesticide

I use mosquito bits in a "tea". Water plants with it. I prepare it and leave it in a special marked gallon.

me and my partner just had to put up with these 🙄 we’ve been using sticky traps and placing them in high traffic pots/near sunlight and its been working like a charm ♥️ they sell like 50 packs on amazon for cheap!
