    We have all been there BUT I’m not there anymore!! 😌 I am going to attach a previous post of mine that explains how I got rid of the gnats in my home. I haven’t seen a gnat in an almost a year! Good luck my plant friend. 🤞🏼🌿🌵

    I chat with our office plant maintenance team and they always recommend diatomaceous earth for the gnats. You’re supposed to put it on top of the soil, and it helps inhibit the full life cycle of fungus gnats

      This method makes complete sense. 👍🏼

      I like your method as well! I wish I had known when my dieffenbachia decided to just embrace her infestation and die 🥲 haven’t had issues with my other girls though

    I use the yellow sticky traps for the ones flying around, and Bonide Systemic Houseplant Insect Control for in the dirt.

    Mosquito bits work well. Predatory nematodes to kill the larvae stage worked better for me.
