How to eliminate small flying insects

Method 1: Soak orange peels in water, put them in the sun for 3 days, then dilute them and spray them on plants and pour them into the soil. After two times, the small flying insects disappeared. Now I use this water every day.

Method 2: Use insect sticky cardboard, which is usually yellow and can attract flying insects.

Method three: The source of small flying insects is that the flower soil breeds in long-term moisture. You can try covering the surface of the flower soil with a layer of sand or perlite.

Method 4: You can use three or four cotton sticks, dip them in DDT (diluted dichlorvos) enough to prevent it from dripping, then insert the handle into the potting soil around the plant, and the flying insects can be eliminated.

Method 5: Buy pesticides to kill flying insects and spray them 2-3 times continuously.

There are several reasons why small flies appear in flower pots.

1) When planting flowers and plants, the soil is not disinfected and sterilized. There are usually insect eggs in the soil. Before you plant flowers and plants, you should dry the soil in the sun and add insecticide.

2) Soil quality. Generally speaking, peat soil is more susceptible to insect pests than piled soil. This is because piled soil is decomposed soil and has a lower chance of insect pests.

3) It is related to the types of flowers and plants planted and the maintenance environment.
