A combination of mosquito dunks in the water and sticky traps should take care of them.

This was a great bit. It's really too bad nobody came up with a way to get rid of Joe Rogan though. Because that's the hero we need.

Mosquito dunks might as well be magic. When I first heard of it I thought it was bull#### advice like putting borax and sugar on ant hills (a fun exercise if you're looking to completely waste an hour, btw)

Just break a piece off, soak it in a jug of water overnight, water plants. Never see fruit flies/gnats on that plant again.

You can get them on Alibaba. Think of it like a mini dunk tank like they have at county fairs, but for mosquitoes. Once they get dunked, they ain't coming back.

Looks like a two birds one stone kinda sitchiashun to me.

Get rid of the Gnats and the nattering in one fell swoop. (Insert Nate Bargatze reference here: )
NSFW!
