It tis the season, unfortunately.  
I usually keep a piece of mosquito dunk (I get them at Lowe’s or Home Depot) in my watering can. Which I keep filled at least over night to make a “tea”. And water with that.  
If it’s really bad I also use yellow sticky traps to catch the adults.  
Also, I make sure to let my monsters dry out almost fully between watering. Gnats like damp soil, so this also helps curb their rapid reproduction.  
I hope this helps! 🌱

If you live in the US, I recommend Mosquito Bits. I add them to every watering and use the sticky yellow plant stickers. It will take a while, but that will help with the fungus gnats. Good luck!
