I’ve got several small houseplants in my home office, and I really like having them around. I’m still pretty new to taking care of them altogether, though, and we’ve gotten dozens of tiny house gnats now. I’ve put up sticky traps and tried to use some pest control in the potted soil. But would a small venus fly trap be able to help here?
I assume by pest control in the soil, you mean diatomaceous earth?
+1 for the apple cider vinegar / dish soap thing. That and diatomaceous earth was enough to get them under control for us. Also make sure you don’t have water standing under the pots if you have those little dish things - we found one of them had backed up and a bunch of water was under the pot.
I do have those little water dishes. I’ll check those out to see if I’ve got any standing water. Thank you!
