I have released this years first batch of predatory mites, on all my plants, to battle thrips. I’m a huge fan of Bio-control and have used it both professionally and on my private plant collection. 🐞 Have you tried any predatory insects or mites to deal with plant pests?

    Not personally but I’d be willing to try. Any you know of for soil gnats?

      There’s a number of beneficial microorganisms that can be used against fungus gnats. You need to check if they’re allowed to use where you live though ☺️ Here’s a couple (they can be sold under other names): Steinernema feltiae Bacillus thuringiensis Stratiolaelaps scimitus (formerly known as Hypoaspis miles)
