I've got a bad fungus gnat situation and I need a quick fix! I can't use hydrogen peroxide or get yellow sticky traps in time since I'm going on vacation in just two days. I need something simple and easy to get my hands on right now!

Why not try covering the soil with a layer of sand? It can help stop the gnats from laying more eggs in the soil. It’s a cheap and easy option to consider!
If you can't get hydrogen peroxide from nearby stores, that’s tough! It’s usually an effective solution since it's harmless and breaks down fast. Just make sure you don’t wait too long!
Check out Zevo traps! They’re super easy—just plug it in and the blue light will lure the gnats in, while the sticky part catches them. It’s a decent short-term solution.

True, the Zevo traps can help, but don’t expect them to eliminate the problem completely. I had a similar experience; even with traps, the gnats kept coming back.
