PLANT DOCTOR FUNGUS GNATS These tiny flying things can swarm around your indoor plants but other than annoyance, are they killing your plants? Those tiny little flies that hang around your fruit bowl or indoor plants aren't always that same thing. Sometimes they're confused with fruit flies, or even ordinary house flies, but none of those two are correct. Inevitably they're up to no good but how to tell them apart? There are fungus gnats and fermentation flies.they are attracted to different things. Fermentation or vinegar flies tend to hang around the fruit bowl, especially if you've got overripe fruit because vinegar flies are attracted to sugars. Fungus gnats are smaller, flitting around erratically: the adults of which are attracted to moisture.the adults are doing much if anything to your plants other than laying lots of eggs, although there is evidence that they can transmit plant diseases. The larvae can be the problem because the feed on the roots of your plants. Fungus gnats -magnified heaps. Remember: Vinegar or fermentation flies are attracted to sugary treats, such as over-ripe fruits, whereas fungus gnats are attracted to moisture such as overly wet potting medium. Greenhouses can also have an outbreak of fungus gnats. Where do they come from? Came with the plants you bought or from potting mix. How to stop them? Keep your soil medium a bit on the dry side. Drench the potting mix with neem oil which will control the juvenile stages. Make a sticky trap using vaseline to trap the adults. Use a type of mulch the prevents the adult fungus gnats burrowing into the soil to lay the eggs. Worst case, repot with fresh potting mix. Greenhouse control can be with predatory insects.

Tuesday evening, Oct 8th I was generously invited to visit (& record biodata if possible) the Glowworms residing in a section of Rainforest looked after by Lionel Buckett, founder/builder of http://lovecabins.com.au/ (check out his amazing cabins & Tree House!!). So, Glowworms can now be marked off the bucket list! What I was not aware of, however, is Glowworms turn into Fungus Gnats!! Ha. :) We arrived a bit early so I was able to walk around the forest a bit as the sun slowly made its descent... GIANT Blue gums above us, incredible ferns and I spotted a bracket mushroom at least 9-10 meters up living on a Gum. Amazing. This bracket has to be at least 4 meters across! Massive. Lyrebirds gave us a soundscape as we waited... slowly it grew dark, constellations began to appear in the caves. I carefully placed electrodes into an area where several larvae were glowing- their activity was wonderful. I recorded the raw MIDI data and later brought that into Ableton where I added Pads, a tiny bit of Decay and some Reverb. Though, their activity was off the charts and really doesn't need any intervention other than adding a Synth voice. A Github repository now exists for those interested in utilizing the raw data. Thanks for listening! Next time I visit Australia I am definitely booking Lionel's Tree House or Cave House! Amazing. Arachnocampa luminosa (Skuse, 1891), Three genera of fungus gnats are bioluminescent, and known as "glowworms" in their larval stage. They produce a blue-green light. The larvae spin sticky webs to catch food. They are found in caves, overhangs, rock cavities, and other sheltered, wet areas. They are usually classified under the family Keroplatidae, but this is not universally accepted and some authors place them under Mycetophilidae instead. Despite the similarities in function and appearance, the bioluminescent systems of the three genera are not homologous and are believed to have evolved separately. Genus Arachnocampa - around five species found only in New Zealand and Australia. The most well-known member of the genus is the New Zealand glowworm, Arachnocampa luminosa. The larvae are predatory and use their lights to lure prey into their web. The species was first formally described in 1891 with the species name Bolitiphila luminosa and was assigned to the family Mycetophilidae.[4] In 1924, it was placed within a new genus of its own, Arachnocampa, because the wing venation of the adults and the behaviour of the larvae differed significantly from other Bolitophila fly species. It was given the genus name (meaning "spider-worm") on the basis of its building a silk nest and using silk threads to capture prey.
We sat down to eat a chickpea burger. We left having controlled the fungus gnat population! Visit https://olona.de/jp004 for more info :]

We cover toxic plants and I list a few plants that are safe to have around kids and pets. How to get rid of fungus gnats and my TOP selection for a first time houseplant.
One of the most frustrating pests in many indoor gardens is the dreaded fungus gnat and its young, the fungus gnat larvae. These little buggers can absolutely destroy your plants if you’re not vigilant — and they can do it quickly. The primary way that fungus gnats affect your plants is through their larvae. They lay eggs in your growing medium. Once they hatch, the larvae will attach to the roots of your plants and drain them of nutrients. Although the larvae are the main negative actors, adult fungus gnats can carry disease, especially fungal diseases. These can be deadly on their own, but that’s not all. They also lay hundreds of eggs fast, which will devour plant roots! It’s absolutely essential that you stop these pests before they can take hold, whether indoors or out. The last thing you need is for your plants to succumb to a horrible fate. I’ll help you to overcome your fungus gnat woes, though. Let’s go into detail about fungus gnats and their larvae, and learn how to demolish them before they can take over!
