fungus gnats in perlite

i have these fungus gnats this dufus gave me that just won't go away. i get them out of one plant and into another they go. luckily this is not in the production tents.

the odd thing is that i water with peroxide 15+ml/gallon and i grow in 100% perlite. these are reveg plants that only get water ever 4 or 5 days in hempy bucket. i moved 3 plants from that location inside, but i haven't noticed anything in the last week. they are isolated at the moment, but in a week it all gets mixed up. this shouldn't happen. they should all be dead by now. additionally everything has been neemed a few times.

Fungus gnats are nothing. Just get some Microbe Lift BMC.

Grab some yellow sticky traps and that Microbe lift stuff PadawanWarrior suggested and it should knock them out in about a week or so. They suck, but it's better than spider mites or PM.

does the micro lift play with the peroxid. or, should i drop the peroxide for a week?

I had been using peroxide at about a 1 part peroxide to 3 parts water ratio which is a hot mix. I still had a big problem and switched to the Microbe lift liquid. It's made a huge improvement and hopefully will get rid of most of them in the next few weeks. I get them coming in from the woods because I have a couple streams on the property and they love the moisture.

Microbe Lift is enough on its own. The peroxide probably would make it less effective since it's a bacteria.

That's what I use for fungus cunts and it works 100% of the time for me.

The last time I had fungus gnats, like an idiot, was because I brought a cactus into my sealed grow room so it wouldn't die from the cold. I used larvicide, neem oil, yellow strips, peroxide, any thing that wasn't poisonous and it did jack shit. I just waited until harvest, destroyed all my mothers and nuked the room. Waited 2 months to start back up when I was sure those fuckers were gone. I'm know there are people that have gotten rid of them, but it was a nightmare for me. Those bastards were mutants.

Fungus Cunts I love it. I do a root drench with spinosad and they die just have to make sure you hit every possible drain, pipe, tray, rootzone, container etc.. They reproduce super fast so you gotta wipe them ALL out.
