5.0 out of 5 stars Attracts and traps fungas gnats … but does not get rid of them
(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } How to get rid of fungus gnats!For the first time ever, I had a pretty bad infestation of fungas gnats. These are the tiny black bugs that at first glance look like fleas and can lay their eggs in the moist soil of houseplants. It took me ages to realise what they were because I didn’t see any on my plants; I only noticed them on the glass of my sliding patio doors. I thought at first they were coming from outside, not inside. They start insidiously, a few at a time and in the 2 weeks it took me to identify them and figure out how to get rid of them, they multiplied at a horrendous rate. I tried quite a few different things at first but this is what has worked for me:1. These yellow sticky traps do just that -> they are brilliant at trapping the gnats (the pics in the product description are pretty much what mine looked like!). However, they do not get rid of the source of the problem. These annoying little pests each lay literally hundreds and hundreds of eggs in the soil. These sticky traps will only give you an idea of the extent of the problem.2. Mix 1 part Hydrogen Peroxide (9% food grade – I bought mine on Bolo) with 6 parts distilled/filtered water and completely douse the soil – IMPORTANT: make sure you’ve let the soil totally dry out first. My problem was in a big 38cm tall by 38cm wide pot and I mixed 150ml of 9% hydrogen peroxide with 900ml of distilled water and doused my pot twice. I wasn’t sure at first how much of the solution I’d need but it turned out I needed to do it twice to completely saturate the soil. The solution will start fizzing as it’s absorbed into the soil and then breaks down into oxygen and water, which won’t harm your plants. According to a blog I found (see below), hydrogen peroxide is supposed to kill larvae and eggs on contact, effectively killing off infant gnats and thus disrupting their lifecycle.3. To ensure a double whammy, sprinkle ground cinnamon (you can buy in any grocery store) over the top of the soil. Be sure to cover completely. Again, according to that bog, cinnamon is a powerful natural fungicide, which kills off the gnats’ primary food source, making the soil inhospitable to further infestation.I’ve done this 3 times now, 10 days apart to allow the soil to dry out, and am planning on doing this until they’re totally gone. Within 48 hrs I had major results. While it hasn’t yet completely killed off all my gnats, it has significantly reduced the population: from a window literally covered with them to the point where I have days when I don’t find a single one. So I feel confident that I’ll get rid of them all eventually.HUGE thanks to the author(s) of a blog I found online called ‘Weapons of Gnat Destruction’ (you can find it doing a search). I tried everything on their list except the last one to no effect until I used the hydrogen peroxide and cinnamon in combination.I hope this helps you as much as it did me.
4.0 out of 5 stars Some flies stick
Don't expect this to work wonders but it's OK. It reduces the number of flies and there are no mess or smells.
5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect item for home and garden
Our fruit trees were infested with “white fly” and their eggs underneath the leaves, tried various sprays with no effect. Fitted six of the sticky pads around the tree and problem solved within days, tree leaves are all clear. I even cut the pad up into six sections and use them for fly trap around the house, just as we did years ago, perfect.
5.0 out of 5 stars Does what it is meant to
Very good excellent in my greenhouse good value for money
2.0 out of 5 stars Not sticky.
Unfortunately the insects can just walk across the surface and then fly off.
3.0 out of 5 stars Value for money
Cheap and cheerful Catches some flies
4.0 out of 5 stars Fly and insect catcher
It is very good at catching insects on its surface, my only reservation is it need to be a lot larger surface area instead of having 25 catchers I would prefer 12 or 15 larger ones.
5.0 out of 5 stars Does the job
The dual-sided fly trap is an effective solution for catching flies and other insects. Its sticky surface traps pests on both sides, doubling its efficiency in problem areas. Easy to hang and replace, it works well indoors and outdoors. Overall, it's a simple, mess-free way to reduce flying pests.
