Oh man! We just started getting gnats here and it’s driving me NUTS. They congregate in the bathroom… even when it’s sparkling clean, no trash or dirty laundry anywhere. I’m off to make this!
I have tried everything now…this recipe, removing the top 2 inches of soil in the plant with the problem,
fruit in the microwave, soapy water solution to water plants and spray on plants, the vacuum, sprinkling
cinnamon on the soil, oil in the sink, bleach in the sink, vinegar and soap in a container with saran
wrap around the top and tiny holes punched in, leaving open hand sanitizer, swatting them, maple syrup on a plate…something is bound to work. I also went through the soil with my hands a demolished anything that looked like it might be eggs. By the way, the soil was miracle grow from Lowe’s. I’m not happy about that! All of the other plants that I did not use that soil in seem to be fine. I will also cover the soil with sand. If none of that works, I guess it’s to the store to find another rememdy!
I want to Thank you!!!!These things are (were) driving me nuts.I found your sight just this afternoon and now they have subsided.Now if I can just get the one that keeps flying past my face. Thank You
