    Gnats love dampness so you need to eliminate sources of standing water....let your plant soil dry completely before rewatering, wipe down tubs and sinks after use...eliminate puddles etc.

    I have tried all the things and they work ok!!! However, I have found the best thing they are attracted to is a good SOUR BEER!!!!!! Leave some out in a shallow cup and see them swarm! You might want to put plastic wrap with poked holes stretched over top to trap them in. I have even heard to spray the area where they are swarming with hairspray to catch them.

    I understand that you come in on your grocery store purchases, like bananas onions etc. They recommend putting everything in the refrigerator.

    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!
