I just got this Alocasia Dragon Scale and it came with flying gnats.

How can I get rid of them asap??

I haven’t had a plant pest infestation before and would like to save the plant - even though it looked half dead on arrival!

You can get sticky yellow traps on Amazon for the adult ones and then spray the leaves as well as water it with water and dawn dish soap!
