Gnat?

[salviaTex]

yea looks like gnats to me. Go to home depot or lowes and buy some mosquito dunks. put about 1/8 or 1/4 of the dunk in a gallon of water let it sit in the gallon for a few days then begin watering your plant with the water it wont kill the gnats already flying but it will kill the larve that produces the gnats. Squish squash the ones that are flying that will help from creating new larve that they may be laying. After the 3rd or fourth watering with this dunks infused water you should notice a reduction in the gnat population. Do not mist the plant with this water or get it on the leaves only water the soil of the plant with it. Also let the first inch to inch and a half of the soil to dry out between watering since the gnats usually dont go deeper than that and it will greatly help to reduce thier population. Upon the first 2 watering with the dunks water you may notice the plant kinda drooping think it may be some sort of reaction to the dunks but dont worry it will be ok. I noticed a huge reduction in gnats by the 3rd watering with this water. Continue as needed.
