I took down Marge today for a misting and to my surprise quite a few small flies fled the pot. This is the first time this has happened. Any ideas? Thanks in advance

    It is likely fungus gnats. There’s already lots of advice on this subject. I think there’s a way to search in Planta.

    Yes if you go to search all posts and enter fungus gnats there’s lots of information. 😀

    Get yellow sticky traps for the adults and start watering with neem oil in your water to kill the eggs! (I’d also isolate it from your other plants for a bit!)
