De eerste rouwmugjes zijn opgedoken! M'n zonnedauwplantjes, die ernaast staan, helpen meteen met ze te bestrijden. #moestuin #pepertoot #peppers #Drosera #FungusGnats
At the beginning of September last year, I created a little terrarium as part of an activities weekend. I was (and am!) very pleased with it. It's been perfectly happy for 5 months and has never been opened. It contains ivy, fittonia, moss, and, noticed for the first time this week - fungus gnats!!! I haven't noticed any flying, but there are dead ones stuck to the glass.
So, were the eggs already there? Did one get in through the cork lid? 🤷‍♀️

"Scientists have recorded 120 species of fungus gnats (scientific name: Mycetophilidae) in Singapore, with a whopping 115 new to science, increasing the number of known species in Southeast Asia by over 25 percent! This discovery stems from a decade-long collaboration between researchers from Singapore, Brazil, Germany and Norway."

What you can see here is a seed in the palm of a hand. The half-translucent worm crawling on it is the larva of a fungus gnat. The seed has been hollowed out by these little insects. That's catastrophic if you try to grow food and it gets eaten before it could even sprout.

I've had good luck using #NeemOil spray to get rid of #FungusGnats [test on a small spot to make sure your plant doesn't have a bad reaction]. Removing decaying plant matter also helps. And using a #PeatFree soil mix helps as well -- peat attracts fungus gnats (and peat really belongs in the bogs, not in our flower pots).

How To Use Neem Oil For Fungus Gnats Control

Neem oil is a non-toxic, all-natural pesticide with insecticidal properties that kill many pests on contact and help you get rid of gnats.

Does Neem Oil Kill Fungus Gnats? Spray, Soil Soak, Neem Cake

Houseplant owners are often frustrated with tiny fungus gnats on their plants. The gnats love to feed on fungi, the leaves of plants, and decaying organic matter. Use Neem Oil for control.

Anyone got a good fix for #FungusGnats
Driving me nuts with the plants in my conservatory. Have tried sprays, toppings of dichotomous earth, pills in the water, neem oil, neem oil chunks, swearing at them, zapping them with the electric tennis bat (my personal favorite but still doesn't work). Anyone? #gnats #houseplants

How to get rid of fungus gnats

Do you have fungus gnats? Soon you will not!

Use beneficial nematodes which are microscopic worms to get rid of the larva and eggs, and sticky paper to get rid of the annoying adults.
