Why are fungus gnats a problem?
You know what’s annoying? Fungus gnats! These small black flies can cause havoc in your grow room, almost drunkenly venturing from place to place looking for somewhere suitable to lay their eggs. If they find a good spot – typically a warm, but moist coco or soil – the breeding quickly commences and you’ll soon have root munching, growth slowing fungus gnat larvae to worry about! Baby pests become adult pests over the course of 1-2 weeks and the cycle repeats, bringing more misery and destruction…

What is this product actually made from please? Is there anything in it that treats the gnats/larvae or is it in providing a barrier to the soul that makes it effective?
Hi, thanks for your question. The manufacturers state that it is made of volcanic rock, though they don't specify the exact sort.
Lava Lite's effectiveness lies in creating a physical barrier that prevents fungus gnats from laying eggs in the soil, stopping larvae from emerging. It does not use any chemicals or pesticides but works by disrupting the life cycle of the gnats, preventing their reproduction.
