This works wonders. Soak 4tbsp in a gallon of water when watering plants. Kills gnat larvae.

I soak the bits in a mesh bag so they’re easy to remove. I water this way every time and totally eliminated gnats.

I’ve found the yellow sticky traps to be very helpful as well! I had a bad fungus gnat problem once and I found that they were attracted to standing water. So put a shallow dish of water near your plants too and after long it’ll be filled with gnats! I also watered affected plants with a hydrogen peroxide/ water mixture to kill larvae.

Sand!! Pour 2-4 cm of sand on top of ALL your plants soil and they will be gone as they cant go in it or out. Your plants will last longer wet too so watch out for watering. It worked for me and never saw them again

Hey, y’all! I just made a post about controlling fungus gnats. You can get mosquito drops on Amazon to put in your watering can to kill the larvae and eventually, you won’t see any more adults! I used to use the mosquito bits, too and those worked great! I found the drops to be easier to use but they are made with the same ingredient to kill the larvae. Whatever works for you!
