It’s probably thrips! Diatomaceous earth powder liberally on the soil, yellow sticky traps all over, and IPM foliar like dr zymes. ✌️🏻💚💨🌿

I use a 1/4 inch layer of sand on the bottom of my pots and haven’t had any gnat issues. I’ve heard you can try a layer of sand on the top of your soil, but I personally haven’t had to do this yet. Happy growing 🤘🏼

Beneficial nematodes are the best way to rid them ive tried many different things and that work the absolute best.

Mix apple cider vinegar about two tablespoons or more with some dish soap and water. Then place it around your plants.

I grow basil next to my plants. It seems to keep most insects away.
