• Gnats at 8/1/11 3:16 PM
  • My house plant is infested with gnats, the plant itself does not attract gnats, it is the soil that I used recently for re-potting has eggs in the soil, once the eggs hatched thy came out in hundreds, how to get rid of the gnats and the eggs?
  • Hi there, Though completely harmless, Gnats are one of the most pesky insects in the world. They tend to buzz around our heads, eat our plants all the while clumsily bouncing off of our faces and occasionally get into our ears. This of course can make a person go crazy, but turning to foggers and toxic pesticides to get rid of our unwanted guests are never the answer. Yes, it may work. However, is damaging the health of yourself and family worth it? Absolutely not. Gnat Stix by Springstar are proven to kill adult Gnats by the hundreds. Eliminating the worst infestations without harmful pesticides. Here is a all-natural remedy for getting rid of Gnats, all you need are Gnat Stix by Springstar and vinegar. Here's what to do : 1. Gnat larve (eggs) are commonly found in plant soil. To control and stop this, use Gnat Stix by Springstar. Peel the release paper from the traps and attach to the Gnat Stix (wooden stakes). Place in the soil and the sticky traps will kill adult flies as they emerge. 2. If you’ve got a swarm, you need to eliminate the source. It seems gnats are attracted to vinegar. Fill a jar almost to the top with vinegar, poke several small holes in the lid and then set it out. The gnats will come to the jar, wiggle down into the hole, and will not be able to climb back out. Set several of these traps around your home and monitor them to determine where the highest concentration is and use that information to find the source. Do this as well with the Gnat Stix to effectively treat your problem. Best, Jatone Customer Support Representative

  • Jeannette - I highly recommend that you open the sink traps from under the sink and clean them. You may have some old food and 'gunk' in there that needs to get cleaned out. Basically, undo the plumbing drain - the U shaped portion - and clean that out. Be sure to have a flat container under the drain so you don't get water everywhere. They may be fruit flies as well? I highly recommend you get some Fruit Fly Traps also: http://www.healthegoods.com/kitchen-fruit-fly-trap-springstar.html The Gnat Stix are approximately 9 inches tall. Here are the instructions: http://springstar.net/PDFs/instructions/GnatStix.WEB.pdf In health, Dr Ben
