NilNat

Fungus Gnats, also known as Sciarid Fly, are one of the most devastating insect pests that any indoor grower is likely to encounter, equally as bad as spider mites. Each Fungus Gnat female lays 200 eggs in warm conditions. The eggs hatch out into maggots which immediately start eating the plant's roots. These maggots will become adults in two weeks and lay their own batch of 200 eggs per female. That's 20,000 maggots eating roots in just 4 weeks or two generations.

Canadian Xpress NilNat is a biological control for Fungus Gnats. It is a microscopic crystal which, when eaten by the Sciarid Fly maggot, swells up in its gut, perforates the gut wall and kills the maggot. Even though you use NilNat, you may still see an occasional Fungus Gnat, don't be alarmed. The NilNat will be working. Remember that the maggots must first eat the NilNat for it to be effective. It doesn't kill the adults. NilNat is best used as a preventative. That's when it is most effective.
