Hi all! I’m having some issues with gnats from my plants when they get watered? I’ve opted to use watering bulbs and that’s reduced it a lot since the stop soil isn’t moist. But unsure how to completely get rid of it. Would I need to just repot with new soil?

    I use neem oil. Kills the larva in the soil as well as the live bugs. It takes a few weeks for you to see the difference. Safe on all flowers, plants, herbs, veggies :)

    I put a layer of white sand on top of the soil that has helped me. I got a bag from a big box store and has lasted for years because I don’t need much.

    Neem oil when watering the soil. Add a top layer of diatomaceous earth too. Replacing all the soil would be another option
