Hello my friend, you can use the yellow tape like you've got to catch the flies but you need to use nemotodes to kill the larvae. The larvae is what is hurting your plant by eating your roots. The nematodes are parasites that kill the larvae. This is the best way to kill them, the second best way is neem oil. Both will kill them very fast. But to prevent it in the future let your soil dry out in between watering!

At this point I would just use a neem oil mixture a few times keep destroying larva and eggs, yellow stick traps close by. And a saucer of white vinegar with a drop of dish soap in it. Enough for them to drown.

These do not work the best, I've been told its akin to hearing construction noise around your dinner table, if you have the ability to eat elsewhere you will. if not you will get used to it. Better off using products like BT or nematodes for gnat control. plus they don't use up electricity Good Luck!
