Can anyone tell me if this are gnat eggs, or something else? I bought from Walmart and didn’t notice until I was home that it had gnats. I started treating with mosquito bit water (first was about 3 weeks ago) and I did again today but noticed these eggs. The spoon pic shows where I took one out and squashed it to see what it was. I’m not sure what they are or what to do 🫠

    looks like spent fertilizer beads from whatever soil the seller used — assuming you haven’t repotted

    Definitely fertilizer beads. Do you need any help with treating the fungus gnats?
