Do you have houseplants? If you do, they may be laying their eggs in the soil.
To remedy this, mix 1/2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar to 4 cups water and water your plants with this mixture. It may take about 3 weeks to disappear, but it works without putting dangerous pesticides in your home.

The term gnat is extremely time-honored in nature. There are 2 person-friendly flying bugs which you discover on your place that folk call gnats. One is the fungus gnat that lays its eggs interior the soil of flower pots. in case you have indoor flowers think ofyou've have been given fungus gnats. There are products that comprise bacillus thuringiensis (called BT) which you would be able to get on line or at many backyard shops. If that is your concern, then get some BT and use it a week or so for a month and you kill all the larvae interior the pots. the different person-friendly gnat is the drain fly. They lay their eggs interior the grease and slime that coats your drains interior the kitchen and bathing room. you may get a product called Drain Gel which you pour into the drains to coat the standards of the drain pipes to get rid of the grease and slime. returned you're able to desire to apply it greater that as quickly as to truly get the activity carried out.

Scrub the place down. Take a day - put on your cleaning clothes and some good music, bite the bullet and clean the place so good it sparkles. Use bleach where possible. Clean under cabinets, in cabinets, and in corners where things that could harbor the bugs might grow. There might be a chemical solution to kill the bugs, but a clean house will keep them from having a place to start up again.

Could they be fruit flies?
You can leave an open glass of wine or beer and they will be attracted to it. Most of them will climb inside and die. Some might hang out on the rim and I find that squirting them with Windex kills them, but you have to get them before they fly away so you need to kind of sneak up on them.
I find it's best not to drink the wine or beer after the flies get in it.....

call a pest control company, and get them to spray in and around your apt. Also make sure u don't have any roting plants or old soil in your house.
