I have just begun to get them again. I can usually keep at bay with granules and mosquito bits. I have to start my regimen again being the blooming season is upon us and winter is walking out the back door. I have seen a couple so the games have begun!! 😜

I highly recommend Fungus Gnat Death Drops. It took some time to fully take effect and it was expensive but in the end it worked!!

Please tell me more about the death drops!!

Google “Fungus Gnat Death Drops” (URLs not allowed here). You just put a little in the water when you water your plants, and the beneficial whatever in the drops kills the larvae in the soil. Over the course of a few months the infestation will die out. Took a good 3 months for me, maybe even longer, but it definitely worked!

I started using this spray and it got rid of my gnats in 2-3 days. And as a bonus, it smells good :)
