Does this work on Gnats?

This product is not designed to kill gnats. Instead, we would recommend our Safer Brand 5105 Yard and Garden Insect Killer, 32-Ounce Spray or our Safer Brand End All Insect Killer, 32 oz

Yes, I would think this will be enough. I must tell you it did the trick for me at home and in work, not a gnat to be seen in months, I am very happy with this product. Good luck...

It will probably kill gnats if they get trap. So far, I caught 2 gnats since I bought it. It is a waste of money for me.

It should...it works on a lot of bugs. I've only had to spray for bugs once. Its pretty awesome!!

I wouldn't consider them the same. A fruit fly will have a reddish brown body and eat fruit only. When I think of gnats they tend to dine on blood. The bait it tailored for the fruit fly, so I can't say for sure if it would work against other bugs. The bait I used was cider vinegar with soap.

If you mean 'gnats,' those are fruit flies. We hang a fly-paper strip nearby and it seems to get most of them. Also, when you dump the Norpro into your compost pile, make sure you wash it well before taking back into the house. We hose it down and let it dry before bringing it back in.

Yes it will. I have had a real problem with fungus gnats in my plants from some new plants I brought into the house. I had this thin on, plugged in, for over a week straight. It works great. One thing...my Chihuahua hates it. Poor thing startles and runs when a gnat gets zapped. LOL

That was one of my main problems. This product seems to do the trick. I have them set up around my houseplants and haven't seen any gnats since.

I would say "yes". My good friend who has always used it says it works on dust mites and hair lice. It works on any bug with an exoskeleton. I've also used it with cinnamon and peppermint for spiders in the 100+ year old house I live in. This stuff is awesome. Be sure to use on pets and their bedding. Fleas hate it.

The dead bugs either stick to the killing screen, or drop to the little metal tray, below. It killed many gnats, the first day. I haven't heard any sound, as the unit is on my enclosed patio.

Yes, and no! As Hersom states below, it will work if the gnat physically touches the diatomaceous earth powder. Therefore, if the gnat walks on the diatomaceous earth powder, it will kill them. My suggestion for gnats on houseplants- depending on the severity: 1) some gnats may be there due to wet conditions including poor drainage. See if you can withhold watering for a couple of days so that things can dry out a bit. 2) spread a layer of diatomaceous earth on the top of the soil. It does not need to be too thick. If you can get a layer on top of the plant soil and then avoid watering for a couple of days - that can help. 3) Check into the yellow sticky cards/paper and hang them around. I think this will work:

Not sure as I am in north east. For me it only seems to work on mosquitoes and gnats. In my experiences it helps but its not a total solution.

Yes: It does work on Spider Mites. A mixture of liquid detergent and water is also effective.

Should be fine. I found it was even safe on gnats, since it killed nothing and repelled nothing.

It should trap any insect that is attracted to light, since I don't have gnats I can't answer the question.

The larvae are under the soil, still hatching. This product prevents adult gnats from laying additional eggs. They (the remaining adults and newly-hatching larvae) should all be gone after a few days.

I live in Minnesota and near a lake. I don't see mosquitoes when I'm using this but it doesn't work very well on gnats. They are tiny and there are so many. It cuts down on them. This is a good product. My daughter lives in Fairbanks Alaska and she swears by this product. They have many mosquitoes.
