Recipe(tried): Trick for removing gnats - another idea

Misc.
Those little guys are annoying, aren't they!

I do know this works...use a glass container, put apple cider vinegar (like about 3T), a couple drops of dish washing soap (Dawn and Ivory both work) and then add water (about 6T) and set this out...

We had these little guys at work and we were told to pour bleach down our drains-we were told that was where they were breeding.

Hope these ideas help...
