    2:58 fine steel wool barrier
    4:25 gnat trap vinegar solution
    5:15 gnat larvae solution
    5:40 gnats spray....gnats on contact..they will die.
    6:00 everyday spray

      For the steel wool.. Note that model #320 (8 pack) is the exact same as #310 (16 pack). Knowing this, package #310 is available from Amazon at just a few cents more.. $7.33 (#320) and $7.93 (#310), both with free Prime shipping

    I tried this today on all of my plants. It seems to have worked within hours. Those gnats have been driving me nuts for weeks. They literally fly up my nose when I'm sitting on my couch because I have two floating shelves of plants above my couch. I did take the one plant outside that looked the most infested and dumped the dirt, washed out the pot with hot soapy water and replanted the plant. I gave all my plants a treatment with the peroxide and water. Thanks for this video. I'm hoping within the next week I'll be completely rid of those gnats/buggers!

      @@Trulynay87 none of what she did help me get rid of the gnats in my house plants. I’m trying another method using Mosquito Bits, and putting a layer of sand around the top of the soil just like she did with the steel wool and rocks. I’m also bottom watering all my plants. I watched another lady video and I’m hoping it helps. Soaking the Mosquitoe bits in hot water in a aquarium bag ( net type of bag with a zipper on it ) for 10-20 minutes let the water cool off take the aquarium bag out of water can and pour the water in a tray big enough for each flower pot and let it sit in there for 24hrs I also poured some directly on top of one plant that too many gnats, after 24 hrs I put sand not play sand I googled what kind of sand to use in plants brought it off Amazon as well as the aquarium bags. Brought a 6pack of gnat zappers that plug into the wall outlets and finally I have some relief!!! I’ve never had gnats this bad before I repotted all my house plants and I don’t overwater them but after repotting them the gnats came I said it’s war in my house and they had to go.

    An inch layer of sand works well, and also looks good. The sand dries out quickly and the adults can't dig into it to lay eggs in the damp soil beneath it, and any current baby gnats can't get up through it. Just another tip.

    the steel wool one sounds GENIUS. I used a peroxide 50 50 mix with water and flushed my 2 aglaonemas. I let them completelyyyy dry out for about 2 weeks. Now i water moderately and let the 1st two inches of soil dry out before I water again and that has worked so far and its been about a month no gnats :)

It worked liked a charm!

    I have noticed that there is so much online about how to get rid of gnats, however, I have not seen anything about plant lights. Gnats are also attracted to light; there is a plant light that attracts the gnats, and the light intensity is of such that it burn the gnats up as they fly into it. This light is placed in close proximity to your plants and you will be surprised at the results. The light also helps to promote rapid growth of the plant. Along with good watering control, I find that this works best for me. No use of any kind of chemicals whatsoever.

    Knats were my pet peeve last year and after some research, this was a great reactive video for when you already have these plants, but if you happen to start from seed you can take it a step further and sterilize your potting or starter mix by pouring boiling water into the soil and cover for 15 minutes then drain, and that'll kill the eggs. Then follow up with this method if needed.

    Thank you for the video, great info here as I had a gnat infestation in my Acrea palm’s soil. I did a weak soap solution w/ Dr.Bronner’s peppermint Castile soap. Ratio is 3/4 TEASPOON soap to 1 cup of warm water (only make what you will use that day). I put it in a spray bottle, shook it up and sprayed it directly on the soil. Some gnats were sitting on the rim of my plant pot so I sprayed them directly and it killed them on contact.
    Its recommended you spray at night and rinse off any extra solution on the leaves and stems in the am. I sprayed the soil only so if you’re spraying leaves probably best to test and see if it harms your plants before you do an all over application. I read the soap solution could cause sunburn on the leaves if left sitting on leaf surface in the sun (idk tho) so when in doubt test it 🤷🏿‍♂️.
    After googling this is a quote on a website explaining why it works
    “Insecticidal soap, also known as horticultural soap, works to kill soft-bodied insects by disrupting their sensitive cell membrane. Essentially, it coats and penetrates the natural protective barrier around their body, which causes them to desiccate - or dry out.”
    Said you can do an application every 4 - 7 days. I haven’t seen a gnat all day yet but it’s only been a day. Will report back after a bit with an update.
    Hope this helps.

    Be aware steel wool rusts like crazy and disintegrates in a very short time. Instead I’d try several layers of cheese cloth, nonmetal window screen (the ones that keep out no-seeum bugs), or even coffee filters or heavy duty paper towels. Otherwise, this is a great tip that I’m using... right after I smush this annoying little fly that’s on my screen. No joke.

    The "gnat trap jar" is the best advice I've ever received! I don't have plants, but I was looking for a way to help with gnats. I live in an apartment and during the summer months, I notice more gnats, but for some reason, I would have a gnat infestation...I would see them in the bathroom, in the kitchen, when I'm watching tv at night (the tv light attracts them), when I I would eat, I always cover my food with a paper towel because the smell attracts and they come buzzin. I figured it could have been the drains, so i use drain cleaner and even garbage disposal cleaner (though i never put food waste in my garbage disposal). I contemplated getting some black outdoor latern since i saw videos that it worked but i didn't know how sanitary it would be for in-house. Last summer, someone came and did a "fog" spray technique in my apartment to get rid of the gnats, but I still saw them bit by bit later though not nearly as bad. This summer it's almost been the same thing, but i increased the number of gnat jars I have from 2 to 4. I placed a jar by my bathroom sink, by my kitchen sink, by window (notice the sunlight attracts them), and by my bananas (i had actually stopped buying bananas because of the gnats)....and THE JAR WORKS. This week alone I've seen so many new dead gnats in the jar (the bodies floating on the surface of mixture). I'm grateful that I don't have to continually be a ninja to kill them all 😀; the jar has helped so much. Thank you so much for sharing.

      Don't make the mistake of confusing "organic" or "natural" with SAFE. Lots of deadly toxins come from natural sources. Lots of plants that are great to grow in our homes are not safe to eat. For example, dieffenbachia is called "dumb cane" because tiny chemical bits in the plant will embed in tissues in your mouth and cause swelling, inability to talk, physical damage. It's particularly hazardous for small children and pets. If you keep it out of your mouth it's fine. Also, nearly anything in sufficient concentration can be hazardous, including neem oil. Read instructions before using any substance.

    Those watering globes that you filland stick down into your soil work really well too… They feed water to the roots, and the top of the dirt never gets wet. I don’t use them all year round, but I bring those watering globes out every fall and winter when my house is full of plants. The sand on top of the soil really helps too, so does bottom watering. When you think about it, just try to water your plants however you can without getting that top layer of soil wet, and that will help with your nap problem. And never, never forget to put the dish soap in the vinegar. I have pretty little jars of vinegar sitting around all of my plants all year round. I change it out periodically. It does work amazingly well! You just can’t forget the dish soap.

    I've been dealing with this issue for years and they jump from plant to plant. I finally found the solution about a year ago and I've had no gnats since. Buy "seven dust' at the hardware store and sprinkle on the top where they come up to eat. never seen a gnat since!
    it works.

      it's the only thing I have ever found that works and works permanently. just sprinkle the top of the soil till everything's white and leave it. When you water, just water right over the top of the white powder. Never had to do it twice just once and that was over a year ago.

      Let me know how it works for you or if you have any questions. I only had to do it once and it's getting close to two years ago and my plants are beautiful and I've never had a gnat since. Good luck!

    I like the steel wool idea as it also likely keeps light off the soil preventing mold growth which attracts gnats as well and it likely helps keep the soil moist underneath.
    I've tried so many methods, tho. The BTI works pretty well but too often I get a batch that doesn't work at all. It's too expensive to keep buying especially when at times it seems I get a bunk batch. Last time I just used Sevin Spray on the soil one day and then one more time 2 days later to kill off the new fliers that emerged from the ground. No more gnats now and it didn't take a whole lot of it.

    Perfect execution. Not missed a thing. This will also work to reduce plant pests like aphids, whiteflies etc. Pests also spend a part of their lifecycle in the soil, so the same measure will work against them. Add to it cleaning leaves with tissue soaked in that peroxide water mixture and that should get rid of pests on leaves.

    Thank you so much for this information and such great timing. I've been following Feng Shui methods and so wanted to reintroduce real plants, especially the lucky ones, but been wary of the Gnat problem. I like the idea of steel wool and ornamental pebbles on top of the soil, so it's giving me the courage to welcome some fresh plants to my home. Appreciate you always!
