Oooh check out pinguacula plants(I think that’s the spelling). They’re basically little sticky traps in plant form!

Sweet! Thanks 😊

Is this a indoor or outdoor plant that trap the gnats

#### Vivienne ha respondido el 2024-06-22

Indoor

Any Pinguiculas or sundews are perfect for gnats. If you’re thinking about either one, you’ll want to plant them in sphagnum moss and sit in a dish of distilled water. Here are some of my pings. They come in a beautiful selection of colors. If you want them to have great colors you will need to provide more intense light. Both pings and sundews are indoor plants.

Oh wow! Is your cabinet that they are in specifically for them?

#### ElizabethF ha respondido el 2024-06-22

They’re just in a window in a tray of distilled water. I don’t have these in a cabinet. I don’t find that really need high humidity. Mine is about 60% and they stay pretty healthy.

Wow those look cool

### Shakera a commenté le 2024-06-22

I will have to get some because I de like gnats with a passion

#### ElizabethF ha respondido el 2024-06-22

I would look into nematodes. They really helped my gnat problem when I had it.

### Shakera a commenté le 2024-06-22

Can it be used on any plant and do you put it in a spray bottle or in the water before watering the plants

### Botanista a commenté le 2024-06-22

My nepenthes are wonderful! I’m obsessed with them now
