Black gnats in soil
aRecreationaliststarted grow question 4 years ago
So this is not really a question for this plant.
But my house plants have become infested with little black gnats, that seem to be in the soil.
They kinda hang around the plants and doesn't stray too far from them.
Question is, what do you guys do to get rid of these suckers?

They will be fungus gnats they are attracted to decomposing organic matter/nutrients that are always damp, get some natural fly killer for the rest of the house to get rid of the majority just don't spray directly onto your plants but not in your growing space, use sticky traps and water less often, harmless just annoying.
Hope this helps friend

Just ordered some diatomaceous, should be here within a few days.
Will let them all dry out a bit and then replace the top soil, mixed with some of the diatomaceous, and a bit of it spread on top.
Thanks for all the answers 😎

Water them less and it should help control the outbreak , diatomous works also around the pots , I use BT-i which should get rid of them long term in ten days or a bit more ... hope this helps growmie 🔥🚀

Diatomaceous earth.
Let your top soil dry out and spray some on it.. Should kill any insect by absorbing flyid from their bodies.

What are these bugs and what to do about them?Hi,
I spotted these on one of my balcony plants today. Somekind of mites?
They were around the sugar to middle sized leaves on new growth. It's around early to mid flower.
I removed the leaves that had the most on them and tried to get rid of those who were left. What else to do?

Pest infestation left my plant folded and weak. I treated it, but now blacked out leaves?Ants were farming an oval shaped bug's secretions that was eating my stem and going underground, leaving a trail of a film-like substance.
Treated it with neem oil, cigarette butt tea, garlic and dishwasher soap to fend them off. Black leaves now. Tips?

BugsJust noticed a small grey Rollie pollie looking big on one of my seedlings. Only found one and believe I killed it but what should I do to prevent/get rid of these bugs. I have another seedling that I didn’t see bugs on and a flowering plant that hasn’t had any issues with bugs
