STICKY TRAPS
You can purchase the sticky traps available at retail nurseries and garden centers. Yellow sticky traps can be cut into smaller squares and stuck over the wooden skewers and flowerpots.

HOMEMADE GNAT REPELLENT SPRAY
A mixture of dish soap, water, baking soda, and vinegar can be filled into a spray bottle. A few sprays of this mixture is an effective gnat repellent. They may be sprayed in areas where gnats are commonly seen, such as around plants, in the bathrooms, etc.

BTI OR GNATROL
This is a naturally occurring fungus that is toxic to gnat larvae. This can be applied over your potted plants repeatedly for gnat control. It is non-toxic to humans and available in the nurseries.

A GNAT FRUIT TRAP
Rotting fruits may be placed in a jar covered with a perforated plastic wrap. Gnats get attracted to rotten fruits, enter the jar, and get stuck inside, unable to escape.

DILUTED BLEACH DOWN THE DRAINS
If gnats are commonly seen around the kitchen sink or bathtub, a cup of diluted bleach may be poured down the drains to kill them.

A CANDLE TRAP
A candle should be placed in a candle stand, and the candle stand should then be partially filled with water. The candle should be lit, and the lights should be turned off. Gnats get attracted to the flame, get burned or fall into the water, and drown.

PROFESSIONAL PEST CONTROL
If home remedies and commercial products fail and there is a serious gnat infestation in the house, a professional pest control company can help address the problem by creating a customized treatment plan for the home.
