I am just getting into soil. As part of this I got a big rubbermaid, drilled some holes in the bottom and filled it with what I tohught was compost for worms and worms. I put paper on the surface and a lid with some metal screens.

well i look inside and their are bugs, little black ones all over the surface. I have not sued this dirt/compost anywhere. It is just percolating with worms and some rather large foodscraps.

But the bugs have gooten everywhere. They are even in the houseplants. I have put out bowls full of applecidar vinegar and soil drenched and sprayed everythig with neem oil. Nothing has helped. It has gotten worse. SO afar as I can tell they are everywhere but inside the 8 mj plants I have in a tent with ladybugs. But they could be soon,

any suggestions.

what I need is a macro video camera so I can do my community access show "hillbilly's wild world of varmints"! it'd be great! I could also use a microscope cam' to explore the forbidden jungles of trichomes! now THAT would be cool! there's some mother spider pics on the kahuna last yr. in my pics. I basically owe it all to my legions...otherwise the herbivores would mess me up!. but you can't get symbiosis with chemical fert's, pesticides etc. you rip apart the fabric of nature with such foolishness! no!... really! organics is CRITICAL to the whole thing.

well, they are kept out of the mj growroom still. cool. I think it is wet soil. They bring them. I will get some sand for houseplants and maybe try some traps. I think the vinegar and soap might have worked a little. If they flew off to die, cuz nothing. I looked in the pest section and this is a common problem.

Mositure, sand, fly paper, poison, and ladybugs. I need more of those. 10 dollars for a cup hundred.

It's probably gnats. They get into compost if it is sealed. I've had them in mine before too, I just threw it outside. Didn't want gnats inside. They are attracted by very wet soggy soil, just like a sealed compost. They are a bitch to get rid of. Sand will help, but the best thing to do is let your soil dry out completely before waterings.

One of the best things that you can use for most bugs is garlic.

I NEVER have bug problems and believe me " I live in a humid place were there are plenty of them around and they can easily access my plants. "

I simply put a nice size clove of garlic right next to every plant and the bugs stay away.
