HORTICULTURE

Detailed explanation-1: -Any plant is a target, but African violets, geraniums, carnations, cyclamens, and poinsettias are especially prone to attack. While fungus gnats can come in from the outside with the plants you bring in for the winter, they also hitchhike home in newly purchased plants.

Detailed explanation-2: -Gnats are attracted to moisture, so you’re most likely to encounter them in the summer months-they often hang out in moist areas of your home like your kitchen drain or potted soil. That also means factors like food spills, unsealed garbage cans, or potted houseplants can all contribute to an infestation.
