Hellooo, how do you guys deal with fungus gnats? Just eager to hear other people's tips and tricks 😊! I swear by my sticky traps! And looking into predatory mites or nemotodes !

I LOVE arbors bio fungicide and bio insecticide. They destroyed my severe gnat problem, protect against disease and prevent all other pests as well! I water with them every-every other time(depending on my laziness)

I tried all the tips and tricks on my pothos that came into my house with it. I had gnats literally everywhere it grossed me out so much I just ended up repotting and washing ALL soil off the plant before potting in new soil. Never had an issue after.

I also had a Zevo sticky trap for any that lingered around after!  
And it was a pothos so it was very forgiving of the crazy impromptu repot.

I had this on some sprouts. Killed all of them. I cleaned out the tray. I haven't had a problem since in that tray. I also use Zevo. If you buy them from a store I would say to clean the plant and change the soil. The nurseries they come from can be infested with them because they spread quickly.

Beneficial nemotodes

Thanks guys!!! 😀 They are little buggers aren't they! Drive me mad, think you're on top of it, sit down to relax and one tried to fly up your nose or in your eye 👀🫣🤣

Do they sell arbors in the UK? 💚

I add Mosquito Bits to my watering can (granules you let dissolve) and then water my plants, that helps kill the eggs. And then use sticky traps to capture the adults. I brought home a severely infested plant from target and it probably took about a month watering this way to kill them off.
