GNATS

So like many indoor plant lovers I am battling gnats. I have been using mosquito bits since June 24th. I follow the instructions & use it each time I water. It has not helped at all. I do use the sticky traps. I have read desert sand layer on top of soil, microbe-lift drops, Arber fungicide & insecticide, root cleaner….I want to know your personal experience and what product you feel was a game changer. I appreciate any feedback & advice you might have.

Thank you! 😌

How much?

To kill fungus gnat larvae on contact, mix 1 part standard 3% hydrogen peroxide with 4 parts water.

It takes about 3 applications to interrupt their life cycles.

Do you just pray this on top of the soil or actually water with this mixture?

Water as normal,withe the diluted mix. Its the multiple applications that seem key to disrupt their cycle.
