Hi everyone, does anyone have recommendations for getting rid of nats in indoor house plants? I've tried the sticky traps and while that catches some, it doesn't get rid of all of them.

This was the only thing that cured ours. Quick fix, too!

A lot of plant influencers advocate for bottom watering; however it can be tricky to know exactly when to take it out. I’ve had a plant or two get root rot from it and die. Also, this will not work for plants with really shallow roots. Have you tried a Venus flytrap?

There’s also Neem oil that I’ve used for more serious infestations such as spider mites or aphids. It smells terrible but once it airs out that could also work. I do try to use it as a last resort though.

I had the same problem! Nothing worked until I tried nematodes - they attack the gnat larvae in soil. Combining nematodes with sticky traps did the trick.

Also, do isolate the problematic plant from others - otherwise gnats can easily find a new home to lay eggs!

Hey everyone. I’ve got an interview coming up for Lead advisory (M&A). I really want the job. They’ve given me a case study with a company (no data just a website) and asked me to prepare a two page report on the company for a partner who is going to help a PE firm that owns the company with the sell side mandate. They’ve said to include industry, strategy, operations, financials and other relevant info. Any tips on what I should include in each heading and how I can stand out?

Having one of those days... y’know, the kind where I’m so fed up with the hole I’ve dug myself by procrastinating that I’m now hyper-focused on becoming 100% organized in all aspects of my life, so I’m revamping every way I keep track of and work on my files... all while neglecting the last 2 days of billables I desperately need to take advantage of...
