Re: Fungus Gnats gone
I'm still killing gnats with BTI. Works great, cheap as chips and doesn't upset the plants one bit.

Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.

I used one of these clever little things when away a lot.
Dumped the pots in the conservatory in a huge tray on top of some capillary matting and that thing in the corner attached to my old autopot res.
PLants were alive and upright whjen I got back after a week.

Re: Fungus Gnats gone
Nice one GF :) I do try to log in once ina while. Been so busy recently I don't have time to think.Greenfingers wrote: ↑Thu Aug 24, 2023 10:41 pmWhere or do you make this/these mate?seymore_budz wrote: ↑Thu Aug 24, 2023 6:20 pmI'm still killing gnats with BTI.

If you google Tanlin that's the stuff they sell in the growshop. You can also get the granuals on Amazon and they work out much cheaper. If you search amazon for Plant GP Fungus Gnat Killer they should be first.
Takes a few days work. You'll notice less and less buzzing about and they should mostly be gone in a week. The smell of Neem turns my stomach :)

Re: Fungus Gnats gone
I've ordered some u.v tubes from Migro I was gonna buy some anyway, but got them a little bit sooner than planned due to the infestation. The flies are still around so let's see if the u.v helps eradicate them!
