More Than Annoying: Why Gnats Are a Problem

Gnats aren’t only tiny, swarming nuisances, but a health risk to humans, animals, and plants, too. Gnats may threaten the health of humans and pets because they create unclean environments and multiply rapidly.

There are some gnats, primarily male, that feed on plant nectar, but female gnats bite and feed on blood. Bites are more likely to occur on exposed skin, and they often cause irritation, itchiness, swelling, and redness.

There are 12 common types of gnats, and each type poses a different threat and nuisance. Common types include fungus gnats, drain flies, and eye gnats. The fungus gnat can damage plants as they burrow in their stems. Drain flies reproduce on decaying matter or drains and spread bacteria as they land on different surfaces. Eye gnats that are known to hover around human and animal noses, mouths, and eyes, and often transmit diseases like pink eye.

If gnats are making their way inside on houseplants or inside your drains, it’s likely because you have a gnat problem outside that’s allowing them to make their way into your home. Don’t let gnats become a problem inside by squashing the issues with outdoor gnat services!

Frequently Asked Questions

Does bug spray kill gnats?

Some bug sprays kill gnats, but not every type will be effective against these swarming pests. At best, they are a temporary solution that would need to be applied often.

With a professional gnat control spray, you can ensure the right areas are being sprayed to control your gnat problem for up to 21 days!

What is the best method for how to get rid of gnats in my lawn?

Gnats are drawn to moisture, so it can help with the swarms if you let your lawn dry out more between waterings. However, if you live in a naturally damp area, or your area is experiencing high humidity, your lawn may not dry out enough, even if you ease up on watering. In that case, the best option to repel gnats from your yard is to get a professional yard gnats treatment.

Can I spray my yard for gnats?

Yes! Pest professionals at Mosquito Squad have the equipment and knowledge to spray your lawn for gnats safely and effectively. Find a local squad near you to get started.
