I have these tiny little gnat-like bugs on my plants. What do I do to get rid of them?

    Make sure the soil isn’t too moist. I have a bug zapper. You can get plant sticky traps on this app or from the store. You can also try diluted 3% hydrogen peroxide, I don’t know the formula from memory.

      Thank you. I’ll try the H2O2.

      I use 50-75mL per 1.8L of Hydrogen Peroxide, every time I water. It works quite well, but you do have to keep up with it for a while if you’re trying to eliminate a pest problem.

      Thanks! This worked great. No more bugs except the one that fell into my coffee and did not survive!

    Soo many things….. prob fungus gnats and there are many treatments. For adults that you see, use yellow sticky traps. For larvae in the soil, you can do a diluted peroxide drench. You can use mosquito bits “tea” and prob some other things. Also, let your soil dry more between waterings
