I finally found out where those nasty ass gnats are coming from.. my snake plant & there’s thousands of the larvae in the soil that I just tossed it out 😭!! I wanted that type of plant for so long & that’s what I get for over watering it smh. Might as well stay with fake plants lol.

Oh no! Can you just replace the soil and keep the plant
Nikki ··
I probably could of but I was so grossed out I just threw it in the trash ☹️

you can sprinkle some cinnamon to combat the fungi that they eat. Slap sticky traps as well or dry out the soil and soon they will stop breeding and eating there.
If I had to deal with one stupid pest, it would be gnats but yeah, they are annoying.

Aww. That sucks. If you want to keep houseplants Azamax is an organic pesticide you can treat anything with.

What @supermomof4, said. It’s from overwatering usually.

I was about to say how did you get them? Usually snake plants are in dry soil but I see. They are easy to get rid of and do not damage your plants like other pests, at least.
