How do fungus gnats get into your home?Updated 3 months ago

Fungus gnats often enter the house through new potting soil of houseplants. They lay their eggs in moist, organic soil, where their larvae feed on fungi and rotting plant material.

In addition, fungus gnats can enter your home through open windows, doors, or new plants that are already infested. Overly wet soil or poorly drained pots make it especially attractive for fungus gnats to nest in your plants.
