will gnatol affect the taste of the buds?

I have a bit of a gnat problem and i am in my 3rd week of flowering. I thought i got rid of them when i poisoned the shit out of them before i put the plants into flowering, but they have come back! I'm debating on whether or not i should poison them again during flowering because i don't want it to affect the taste of my buds ! does anyone have experience with gnatol during the flowering stage?

I am gonna say yeah because I have not found a pest remover that does not leave a taste on the buds. The first light of greens you will be like wtf nasty but after it gets burnt a bit its alright.

yea, i'm gonna live with the flies for another month and a half then... i don't want gnatol flavor weed!!! I used it a lot when i was vegging, as long as i don't use it now i wont be tasting it right???

If you have a gnat problem, try putting an inch of sand on top of the soil. This will kill fungus gnats fairly quickly (Which is probably what you have).

Its definitely what i have. damn fungus gnats. but i heard sand does damage to the plants. i have a bunch of fly traps that i think will at least keep them from killing my plants.

does anyone have experience killing gnats with sand and not suffering damage to the plants?
