I’m using Mosquito Bits in everything when watering and I put them in just with the sticky stuff on either sides. My husband has put the Zevos in the outlets around my plants but nothing is working. The gnats are flying around in your faces now….countertops!!! I can’t stand it. I don’t want to get rid of my plants but….. Someone help me!!!!! ## 9개의 댓글 ### Adrian님이 2025-06-06에 댓글을 남겼어요. The bits will take a few weeks to kill all the larvae, and that’s the same case with the sticky and zero traps. The only thing I can recommend is to consider repotting the plants with gnats into fresh, dry soil, keeping the sticky traps around, and quarantining any plants that don’t have gnats in them from the ones that do. Hope this helps, and hope the very relatable war against fungus gnats ends soon for you! ### David님이 2025-06-06에 댓글을 남겼어요. Sticky traps will work, but it might take 2 or 3 weeks to get them all. I had the same problem, but eventually we eradicated them and plants were all okay ### prayformyplants님이 2025-06-06에 댓글을 남겼어요. When using the mosquito bits are you just placing them on the top of the soil? Or are you soaking them in water and then watering your plants like that? I saw a big difference when i made the tea and watered regularly! #### Annie님이 2025-06-06에 답변했습니다. Both!! ### Amy님이 2025-06-06에 댓글을 남겼어요. Beneficial nematodes eradicated my gnat problem very quickly. Changing your watering routine is key too. Try bottom watering and letting the soil dry out a bit more. You can win this battle!! ### Amy님이 2025-06-06에 댓글을 남겼어요. I have sprinkled cinnamon on my outdoor plant and it worked but it wasn’t an “infestation” and idk if that kills the eggs. Check the post a few scrolls up…someone posted a remedy there. Good luck! ### Amy님이 2025-06-06에 댓글을 남겼어요. I just got this fan on Amazon and it worked instantly! The gnat problem is everywhere I swear. Way better than the plug in version. Caught 100 gnats in 24 hours. Someone just posted about the mosquito control here \& there’s great reviews for how well it works with gnats. Good luck ![2개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/ahCTRv8h6e5pa1M_fMqIQJS4xBzv5FFRs_TH1XgqF0c/wm8DCkhvTvepZHS-lTmYrQ.webp?size=large) ![2개 중 2번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/ahCTRv8h6e5pa1M_fMqIQJS4xBzv5FFRs_TH1XgqF0c/cRpLRmwmQRSlcqPUFt2Aqw.webp?size=large) ### Annie님이 2025-06-06에 댓글을 남겼어요.
