Also Effective: Other products may kill them but only these will keep them away.
Casey's Tips:
1. Fungus Gnats are often mistakenly called fruit flies. Two different things, though they do love rotting fruit.
2. Fungus Gnats are usually symptomatic of overwatering and/or root rot. Fix the cause first.
3. B.T. comes in multiple subspecies. Fungus Gnats are most affected by subspecies israelinis.
4. Sticky Traps are a great way to spot them early.

3. NONE OF THESE PRODUCTS KILL EGGS...HENCE, THE MUTIPLE APPLICATIONS.
4. Alternate using more than one product. This will prevent the thrips from developing resistance to any one product.
