Progress and Frustrations

[GpsFrontier]

I was looking into something else when I found a little something on gant's, Fungus gnat's actually (not sure how many variety of gant's there are). I don't know if you are still having a problem with them or not, or even if these are the exact ones you have encountered. But it reminded me of this thread, and may be able to give you some ideas.

No idea to be honest. Little buggers just look like really tiny little black flies to me...I wouldn't have the first clue on how to tell one species apart from the next.

Not a real problem though actually. Still have a few of them flying around here and there, but if anything I'd say overall I've noticed fewer around than before. They are still there though none the less. Don't seem to be causing any problems though so I'm not overly concerned with them.

On a side note...getting ready to harvest my first round of peppers. The Bolivians pictured previously here in this thread are starting to turn red and are about ripe. I have some banana peppers ready to come off as well. Rest still have a bit to go befoe any of them are ripe.

Well...here they are. My first pepper harvest. A hot banana pepper and 3 bolivian rainbows.

I lay a No-Pest-Strip in the top of my worm bin to kill the gnats, it seems to work.
