Gnats!! How do we get rid of these pesky flies?

Question

We sometimes have fresh fruit on the counter/table to ripen. I decided to put all fruit away and sprayed the area where the fruit was with kitchen cleaner. They migrated to the house plants! I took the plants and set them outside. Kitchen garbage now...emptied it and wiped it out really good, yes it has a lid! Lysol'd that. What else can I do to get rid of these tiny flies??

Answer 1

yuck...been there ...done that.

wipe you plants with a diluted dish washing liquid and get some insect and fly spray at the dollar store. shut up the house and take the family to dinner and a movie. after 4 hours come home, open the house , play in the yard for an hour then spray it good with vinegar and water and you will be good to go. Maybe its not "GREEN" but it works. and nobody died...after this do not leave anything except plastic fruit on the table :) lol
