How did I get fungus gnats?
- You brought a new plant home & it had fungus gnats or eggs in the potting mix
- The gnats came in a bag of poor quality potting mix
- Fungus gnats thrive in moist soil
- They eat the roots of your plants

Treating a fungus gnat infestation
I recommend to use a two pronged approach:
1. Yellow sticky traps to catch adult fungus gnats and monitor the population (switch out these often)
2. Use Neem oil as a soil drench & spray to kill off fungus gnat larvae & eggs
3. All your plants potting mix to dry out & repeat steps 1 & 2 until eradicated
