Alright, Sis, get to backtracking!!! 1 part Peroxide/4 parts water, pour in pot/container until runoff, kills FG larvae ON CONTACT. Also, Neem Oil, Mosquito Bits, and/or Knock Out Gnats from gardenalive.com You may want to put a layer of sand around your plants to starve those buggers. Good luck, SS/BW…mister

Wasn’t trying to step on your toes @misterbee
Only stating what has worked for me. Actually my wife suggested using a dusting of DE because she said her mother used it on her regular house plants. I tried it. It worked for me. I HAVE heard the peroxide thing too.
I know a @anon71563794 !!! And a Will Power.
Guess you aren’t old enough for the Flower Power thing……

Not at all, Bro!!! NEVER let that thought cross your mind. Heck, I’ve got a 25 Lb Bag of DE sitting in the Basement, enough to last f-o-r-e-v-e-r. I use it weekly in the Raised Beds. I didn’t mention ii 'cause her Gnats have already laid eggs. Everyone should use DE as a PM tool. SS/BW…mister

Any of you guys use UV T series bulbs for sanitation? 8w T5 365nm and 270nm for an hour every time I feel like it or need it. Supposed to radiate a room larger than mine in less time but I’d rather be safe than sorry with pests.
Also added a praying mantis baby yesterday that the kids found 
can’t find em now so must mean it’s busy

im curious about these lights. are they just used to radiate the room? used for supplemental uv lighing?
What this light do , what her purpose?
Specifically to radiate the room, penetrates tiny bugs like gnats, baby thrips, aphids, spider mites. Even supposed to help with mold and mildew although I keep a ridiculous amount of airflow going in my tiny room lol
