Understandable, It's also your grow. I'm not recommending one over the other just relaying to you, what worked for me.

I can't use h2o2 cuz it will kill my microbes in soil. Will orca work for soil grow? And will it kill microbes if so?

Hrmmm, that is a good question. I have no idea. Orca is microbes plus bacteria. You'll have to ask an organics guy.

I just got some of this: Gnatrol WDG

If the Orca doesn't show any help then I will be dousing them with the WDG.

This is what the site says (For Organic Production):
Repackaged in 1-60gram bottle...NEW FORMULATION Gnatrol WDG Water Dispersible Granule biological larvicide offers the same effective control of fungus gnat larvae that growers expect from Gnatrol, but with added product benefits. Increased shelf life - now 2 years liquid formulation was only 1 year Much more concentrated; less product packaging to carry around and to dispose of Increased convenience and application accuracy Easier to measure and wont leave a residue like the liquid formulation Can be used on vegetables, bulb crops, bedding plants and a wide variety of ornamentals Fungus gnats stop feeding almost immediately after it is digested, and death occurs 24 to 48 hours later OMRI listed Gnatrol WDG is a biological control for fungus gnat larvae. It contains a variety of bacillus thuringiensis bacteria that kills most gnat larvae. Apply as a soil drench or add to the nutrient solution of your growing system. Does not kill adult fungus gnats, but once the larvae is killed, the adults will quickly die off. Can be used up to the day of harvest on all edible plants. Use 0.25 to 3.25 teaspoons 0.9 to 7.3 grams per gallon of water depending on severity of infestation.
That's what I used when I had gnats with a DWC,, worked great, still have some
