RhondaI have tried and liked 5 pieces of advice Iāve gotten from Planta community. (The second two arenāt at the same time. Started with second and moved to third.) 1: sticky traps (got the post and tapes vsn) 2: 4 parts water to 1 part hydrogen peroxide (mixed in mason jar for batch big enough for just one day of watering since hp turns to water after a bit) 3: Mosquito Bit tea. I have a squirt nozzle water bottle that I make the tea in. Reserved just for these bits. I leave lid off for bits to dry between uses so I donāt worry about mold heard others talk about. 4: foliar spray for mist days (hey, why not) 4 pts water to 1 part hydrogen peroxide (hydrogen peroxide spray bottle is sold in stores, always see hydrogen peroxide in dark bottles because light sensitive and it turns to water. I try to make 1 day worth anyway) 5: bottom watering plants when I can

Oh my Goshā¦ I feel so silly. I āpremixedā some hydrogen peroxide and water to spray for root rot but I guess it was just water I was spraying š

I donāt think thatās silly. It took forever for me to figure it out. Finally it clicked when I realized that must be why it always comes in dark bottles.

I had to repot mine in better quality soil and I got way less and bottom water my plants that need moist soil

RichelleI bottom water and do a mosquito bit tea soak once a month-ish, with yellow sticky traps at the ready as soon as I spot any adults
