5 Home Remedies For Killing Gnats

Gnats are tiny, bothersome insects that, while not dangerous to people, maybe exceedingly irritating.

Before you pay someone to get rid of these irritating insects, you can try these natural home cures for gnats.

A few errant gnats in your residence can swiftly turn into an annoyance swarm in a number of days.

These flying insects can harm your houseplants and bring you a lot of grief as you try to get rid of the annoying gnats.

If they are not handled with when they first appear, the gnat problem will only worsen.

Here are 5 home remedies for killing gnats.

Ammonia is the first element.

Gnats can be killed by sprinkling ammonia around affected regions in your home. Begin by pouring some vegetable oil down the drains of your sink.

Gnats will congregate around the vegetable oil in the sink.

Pour some ammonia on them once they've gathered in sufficient numbers.

Because ammonia is toxic to living organisms, it will destroy any gnats that have accumulated in your sink.

You should avoid using the sink for several hours after distributing the ammonia to guarantee that all of the gnats have been killed.

2. ACV (Apple Cider Vinegar).

Apple cider vinegar is a popular and successful home remedy for catching gnats and fruit flies.

Because gnats and fruit flies enjoy the delicious scent and taste of apple cider vinegar, you may draw them into a vinegar trap both indoors and outside.

Fill the Mason jar halfway with cider vinegar.

Stir in the sugar and dish soap until the soap is equally distributed throughout the vinegar.

Wrap the plastic wrap around the top of the pot and fasten it with a rubber band.

Make numerous small holes in the plastic wrap with a toothpick.

The perforations allow the gnats to fly into the jar, but because there is nowhere for them to land in the bowl, they drown in the apple cider vinegar.

Set up many fly traps in locations of your home where you've spotted flies congregating.

If you have a high concentration of gnats in your kitchen, set one of the traps on the floor near the refrigerator, another on the counter, one near the trash can, and one more near the sink drain.

Because they are moist and contain food, these are all spots in your home that attract gnats.

3. Vino.

Wine, like white vinegar, is an effective home cure for gnats.

The delicious scent and taste of the wine, like the vinegar gnat trap, attract gnats and fruit flies.

Here's how to naturally get rid of cluster flies using a cheap bottle of wine.

Pour some leftover red wine into a small container and add a few drops of liquid dish detergent to the bottle to form a gnat trap.

Keep the containers near a food source, such as decaying fruit, or near your potted plants.

To get to the sweet-smelling wine, the gnats will fly into the pot and become covered with dish soap, preventing them from flying free and drowning in the wine.

4th. Vanilla

Vanilla is another effective home cure for gnats.

Gnats and fruit flies are repulsed by the aroma of vanilla.

You may manufacture your own mosquito repellent by purchasing a vial of vanilla extract or vanilla essential oil online or in a local store.

Fill the spray bottle halfway with water and vanilla extract.

Replace the cover and give it a good shake to integrate.

Spray the homemade gnat spray in the areas of your home where gnats are a problem.

Continue to use the mixture in areas where gnats have become a problem.

Baking Soda is the fifth ingredient.

Baking soda has a plethora of applications.

It may be used for anything from food preparation to cleaning, and it can even be used to repel pests and insects like gnats and black flies.

The fact that baking soda is non-toxic to people while wreaking havoc on these small pests is the best argument to use it to repel gnats.

Pour four teaspoons of baking soda, a gallon of water, and one teaspoon liquid soap into a spray bottle to use as a gnat repellant. 

To successfully kill gnats, thoroughly mix the solution and spray it in gnat-infested regions.
