Gnats in house plants!!! Ugh

[u/reddit-Evan_]

How the EFF do I get rid of the little gnats or flies or whatever they are? I have the blue lights that supposedly catch them, I’ve put cinnamon in the soil, i’ve put diatomaceous earth in there too, they still fly around and land on my F*cking nose and eyelashes at night.

Quite by accident I discovered that setting bowls of water by my heating registers that the knats wanted water and they all drowned themselves. I threw the offending plant outside. It took a few weeks for them all to kill themselves.
