FUNGUS GNATS

Ever see a swarm of little black flying gnats around your precious produce? Just give the branches shake and see if a swarm of these pesky insects appear. If so… you have fungus gnats!

FUNGUS GNATS

PLANT DAMAGE
These gnats
infest the growing medium and their larvae eat the plants roots. Plants
loose vigor and the leaves turn pale, but the plants won't actually
die.

INSECT APPEARANCE
Tiny
grey or black flies with long legs and antennae, flying aimlessly
around your plants. You will also find them in the growing medium, and
possibly even swarming around your nutrient vat. Fungus gnats like damp,
decaying organic matter.

TREATING LIGHT INFESTATION
You can try sucking up many of the annoying little buggars with a vacumm nozzle, but this is not a permanent solution; try Yellow Sticky Traps, too.
