My monstera has a ton of fungus gnats in it, and I have sticky traps to catch the adults but more keep hatching. Any suggestions on how to kill the larvae ? I don’t want to use mosquito bits because of the toxicity but I am having a hard time finding other methods

I used diatomaceous earth. It work really well for me. I just covered the top layer of soil with it. I also hear doing the same thing with cinnamon works too.

Look up beneficial nematodes from Natures Good Guys. Can sometimes find them at plant nurseries too.

Diomataceous earth on the top of the soil! I also have one of the plug in sticky traps and it works really well
