I put Apple Cider Vinegar in a jar. I wrapped a piece of a piece of cling wrap over the jar and push it down to NEAR the top of the vinegar. Make a SMALL hole in the center of the cling wrap. The gnats will go in and not be able to come back out. It works very well for me.

At times, gnats seem to be attracted to the drain hole in sinks. Could be the over flow hole if there is one, so you might have to clean it out by pouring bleach in it or vinegar might work too and is not toxic to breathe. This may get rid of some gunk or smell that can attract them. I don't think there are long, thin brushes that can fit down in there. I had that problem with fruit in my kitchen too so had to make sure they were not too ripe or put them in the refrigerator.
