Get some chillies - hottest you can find - powder will do. Mash em up, add water and strain with coffee filter or tissue and spray everywhere. It won't kill them outright but stops em feeding and dramatically slows reproduction. I sprayed every day for 3 days then every 2nd day for about a week. I don't know how far into flower you are but this may buy you some time. Obviously mold can then be an issue if your airflow /temps aren't good.
Hope that helps

They might well be fungus gnats/fruit flies Shawny.

Me and Don both get em quite regular.

You want to let your pots dry out and then water with a strong Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) wash.

I put women's tights round my airports too so they can't get at the roots to feed.

The wetter your medium is the harder they are to get rid of.

They Don't really do any harm to your plants if you keep on top of em but they're a fucking pain in the arse to live with.

Yeh they seem to be living on the surface of the soil where its dry and when I water they come flying out...had me itching like a scabby cunt last neet lol...I'll have a look at this H202 was tbingy....when I get in I'm gonna layer the tops with diatom earth just to see how that goes maybe even a folier spray of it? Little cunts.....Yeh they do look like fruit fly tbh the kind that hang around pineapples n shit....little cunts I'll charge the fuckers rent soon

Yeh ibrekon could be fruit flys man don't thinknteyre gnats tbf I get some sticky tape things use my DE and see if that works if not I'll have to get something to hit em hard with....the main attraction for them seems to be the dry layer of soil so just gonna mist is down everyday now as well see if it helps
