Where do GNATS come from, and how can I get rid of them in the house? (the only plants I have are succulents?

I have no fruits, no other plants but some succulents on the kitchen window... now gnats are all over the whole house, even upstairs!!

I also have houseplants (mostly succulents), and I've had gnats from time to time. Every time I begin to get gnats I start watering my plants with a solution of 1/2 tablespoon to 3/4 tablespoon apple cider vinegar mixed into 4 cups of water this will help get rid of the gnats. It helps kill the larvae and eggs they have in the dirt. Also let your plants go as long without water as possible between waterings.





By the way, watering all of the time with that solution doesn't hurt anything, and it keeps fungi from growing (mushrooms, etc.).

Reply:I know it sounds stupid, but when I was canning, I had gnats in the house with the veggies.. and I had to put out a glass of red wine. It attracts them like crazy, and after a couple glasses, they were all gone. It truly works!
