How to Use Apple Cider Vinegar to Stop Fungus Gnats in Vegetable & House Plants: Set Up Examples
Apple Cider Vinegar will attract fungus gnats and other flying insects and kill them. I show you how to use it, set up the saucers and where to place them.

I’m sure this has been said already in the comments. If you add dish soap it the apple cider vinegar it will reduce the surface tension and the water becomes more like a magic.
Vinegar shall kill any Part of a Plant of which the Plant Part is exposed to .
Does this work for pot plants?
Will the apple cider vineger stop aphids too.
I had them a few years ago Here I thought that they were Fruit Flys etc.
I used a fly lamp, sticky paper and even fine sand on top of soil and now i have almost no fungus gnats left. I tried to use apple vinegar, but they seem to be more attracted to stickypaper. nonetheless i also use apple cider just in case, because these flies multiply so fast, you have to indeed take action before it spreads out of control.
are humidity domes necessary? i'm confused when to use
It works! I’ve used it since I began losing my seedlings indoor….
I’m going to scoop out the whit powdery stuff too. Or should I discard the soil
So the white/ pinkish powder that formed on top of my soil is from the fungus gnats? Thanks for this tip!
fungus gnats are a sign of improperly draining media that produces anoxic acidifying conditions. improve media and/or add lime, which raises ph and helps media dry out easier.
Will this work with plain vinegar
Gary are fungus gnats the same as fruit flies?
What a great tip! I make similar traps from wine with vinegar added in the fall to control fruit flies in my winery. I always add a drop of liquid soap to break the surface tension of the liquid, do you think this would be a good idea for the vinegar traps too? I’m definitely going to employ your method for controlling fungus gnats this year!
Gary this was the perfect length video all of your should be this length.
the good ol Neem oil works. I sprayed the soil after planting seeds as a precaution, and repeat it 2 times a week, fingers crossed those fungjaleous gnatsiales dont show up
Great video, thank you for sharing!!!
I find using apple cider vinegar is one the the cheapest and most effective ways on the small scale hydroponics to controlling fungus nats. Not to mentions it is one of the most relatively available products at most groceries stores around.
Mosquito dunks/bits are the trick to stop them once and for all. It's a form of BT bacteria that also consumes gnat larvae. That darn Miracle Grow potting soil ALWAYS has gnats in it haha
