A Houseplant PSA/Infomercial:
Houseplant owners dealing with gnats!
So you got a few houseplants, and then a few more. You were enjoying the bliss of your indoor jungle,then it happened.
Gnats started showing up. Tiny little buggers who love flying around your face and ears.
Many people purchase the yellow sticky traps. These traps are ugly, potentially dangerous, prone to catching unintended targets like your dog’s fur and don’t deal with the root cause of the problem. Bugs laying eggs in wet soil.
Fungus gnats lay eggs in moist soil and multiply quickly. I’ve seen many people get into houseplants enthusiastically and then toss all their plants due to the gnats.
There’s an easy, natural way to prevent this cycle and the life cycle of fungus gnats in your home.
Summit Mosquito Bits 🦟
Yes, those donuts you throw in backyard puddles when you know mosquitos are about to get bad are an amazing solution to your indoor bug issue.
The product is tiny bits of corn coated with a special bacteria that targets the larva of gnats and mosquitos. How cool is that?!
All you need to do is soak some bits in water to make a “tea” and then water your plants with that. The eggs in the soil won’t hatch and the adults will die off on their own in about 2 weeks. Life cycle broken, problem solved.
