I've got a gnats problem in the flower room. Put up a few of those yellow sticky sheets for now but woundering what would be a good fix.

Im on day 43 of flower, 4 site RDWC (small trees) hydrocarbon in 5 inch net pots, no rockwool.

Take a little night light , and plug it into an extension cord , put it at the bottom of your grow pot or base of the plant , put a sticky trap in front of the night light aiming down , when it's lights out the fungus gnats will be attracted to the light and get caught on the stickies , you'll kill hundreds a night in the dark hours ......

A follow up,

I used the microbe lift at 5cc into my 4 site 13 gal (maybe 50 gal) current culture setup 7 days ago and it worked like a charm. I put out 3 new traps yesterday and they are virtually gone which makes sense in a gnats cycle.

The yellow sticky traps work best around the top of pots as well as on the walls. They like to go for the roots and hatch their larvae in there. I’ve used mosquito bits with good success if you’re using soil. If hydro, I’d go with gnatrol or go-nats or something similar. I’ve also had good results with using lost coast plant therapy which also treats and prevents PM too.
