Successful fungus gnat traps - DIY project
I was so happy when I saw that my homemade traps worked. I grow all of my orchids in my bedroom so I think you can see why I don't want any gnats around. I noticed them buzzing around and had to get rid of them.
I tried everything, but in the end, these homemade traps worked! I found it online.
You need a small plastic cup, some apple cider vinegar (or bear or fruit juice, I used vinegar) plastic wrap and a rubber band. You also need a few drops of dish soap.
Pour about an inch of vinegar into the cup. put a couple drops of dish soap in and stir. Then, cover the cup with plastic wrap and secure with a rubber band. Pole a hole in the plastic wrap with a pencil and move it around to make it bigger. Voila! your trap is ready.
I made a few and put them around my room. After just a day, I have found at least 10 of the little buggers floating around on the bottom.
