Was wondering if I could get some advice? Dropped Beans cracked Beans yesterday and noticed some twitchy ass little flies dartin around my soil. Are they Fungus Gnats and if so what can I do?
The Fungus gnats are a nuisance. Their eggs hatch into larvae that can ruin your plants by eating roots. Especially young sprouts. Attack in two ways, Mosquito dunks. The "Bits" Derek mentions. They are sold in the big box home stores. They are loaded with nematodes that eat the larvae. Just soak a quarter piece in water and pour a generous amount into each container.
Second is a form of birth control. The tiny gnats hide their eggs under anything in the soil. They do not dig. A thin topping of a fine sand or Diatomaceous earth gives them no place to hide them so they move on.
Good luck.
