How do I get rid of gnats around my plants?
Is there a natural remedy of getting rid of gnats? They are pests that I can't seem to eradicate from inside my home. I have tried apple cider vinegar with sugar, wine, and those yellow sticky strips (which seem to be helping).

Overwatering causes problems with the gnats since they like the damp wet soil. Let your plants dry out before watering again. You will see that when you water they fly up.
White vinegar and water works about 1 part to 6 parts water spray away.
Gnats usually form around fruits and vegtables left out in room when they start to go bad. They disappear when I remove the offending object.
I had a terrible gnat problem and the vinegar traps worked perfectly! Simply place a few tablespoons of apple cider vinegar or white vinegar, a few drops of dish soap, and a tablespoon of sugar in a bowl and stir. Set your bowl in an area where gnats are prevalent, such as your kitchen or bathroom. This took care of my problem in just a couple of days!
