OK so now I have indoor fungus gnats all around plants. I bought some fly traps to put around but does anyone have some suggestions or ideas to control? Can I cut out an old window screen and put over top of soil in pot? 
UPDATE DAY 13: gnats starting to appear, thinking about doing first nute feed at 1/4 strength, plant starts looking tired 2-3hrs before lights go off...leaves drop a bit but then first hour in morning when light comes on they perk up looking great all day. 20/4 lighting schedule. Thanks for everyone's help!

the yellow stickies worked for me, maybe some diatomaceous earth would help

Welcome bro glad you could come along for the ride, although it may be bumpy,just sit back, buckle up and..."cough, pass".
Love tons of information! I cant tell you how appreciative I am from the fellow people on AFN. Much support!
Yea the gnats
- not too many, yet, just more of a nuisance right now. From what i read as they populate they will lay eggs in soil and the cycle continues. I did read up on some info about sticky pads which i got. Also attached is some info from University's i found on google. I dont think i will be putting any chemicals in but i did see the Neem oil which may work, just needs to be treated often. If it becomes an infestation i will take action until then the sticky pads should catch the stragglers. Unless some other experienced growers say other wise lol.

Great minds think a like! Lol exactly what i was thinking for the gnat thing, just stick'em! Not sure what the diatomaceous earth is, can you elaborate? Thanks
yeah , which reminds me my seedlings need a sticky
i dont know too much about it , you can use it as a top dressing & helps with pests in soil (gnat larvae)
