Hi guys! I have gnats and have been trying the hydrogen peroxide and water mix and was wondering how many times I need to do that until it’s resolved. Thanks!

    That's hard to say, really depends on how bad the infestation is and how many plants are affected. I'd say at least two waterings but more if they're still lurking

    You need to also have sticky traps to catch the adults as they’ll just return to the soil after you’ve used the HP solution. I’ve never needed to use it more than 2x on a plant.

    Adults lay up to 200 eggs per day and live 28 days. The other stages of life are wriggling around in the soil waiting for their turn. Consider throwing current soil, and then adding neem powder and mosquito bites to new soil.
