Stick or clip them to the pots, you'll catch more at soil level. :oik!:

Peel back both sides of the yellow stickies and clip an inch or so to the felt with the rest of it sticking up in the air. :ak:

A healthy layer of sharp sand helps. It rips off the wings of fungus gnats. Also, try and let the soil dry out a bit.

A quick spray of Raid helps, but not if the plants are in flower.

SMC is for spider mites, mate. Or do they now do one for fungus gnats?
