I currently keep finding these weird black bugs that crawl into the soil of my plants. I’ve tried putting on cinnamon on the plant soil and it’s still not working and I’ve tried sticky traps. How do I get rid of these stupid little piss

Try Microbe Lift. Add a few drops to a gallon of water \& use that to water plants. It disrupts the larvae so they can't hatch offspring. Once the adults are gone you're good to go.

Hydrogen peroxide mixed with water and spray on the soil to kill larvae

Should I spray it on the soil even if it has cinnamon on it

They’re pesky little things, suffered with them badly last year and they have returned again this year.

I used the sticky traps alongside “Fungus Fly Killer Nematodes” by Dragonfli and it was a really effective combo. Will be purchasing again this time around!

Death drops from happy happy houseplants has finally got them under control at my house. I use it every time I water any of my plants.
