Of course, you first need to verify that fungus gnats are indeed attacking your cannabis plants. As mentioned earlier, fruit flies are often mistaken for fungus gnats, so make sure the ones you see are dark brown, gray or black in color and not yellow, orange or light brown. Also keep in mind that fungus gnats are a lot smaller than fruit flies.
Among the best foolproof ways to check for fungus gnats is using yellow sticky cards which you can purchase at any gardening shop in your neighborhood. Don’t go for any other color because gnats are particularly attracted to yellow. I suggest you place a couple of cards in the soil next to your cannabis plants. Just leave them there and observe if they’re covered with gnats after a couple of days. If they are, then you probably have an infestation.
If you’re pressed for time, however, and have this strong gut feeling that fungus gnats are beginning to devour your cannabis babies, a quicker way to find out is to use something that’s already in your kitchen—a potato. Slice a potato into wedges and stick them into the soil or potting mixture.
Cannabis plants can die from a fungus gnat problem, particularly if your plants are quite young or if the infestation is so bad.
Time is of essence so you need to address a fungus gnat infestation the moment you detect these nasty cannabis pests in your grow space.
While it may be easy to trap adult fungus gnats using yellow sticky cards, it’s the larvae that actually needs more of your attention since they’re a bit harder to deal with.

Great company! I was about to kill all my plants and shut down because of frustration with two-spotted spider mites and broad mites. So happy Ryan verified this through a Dino lite microscope at 220 x magnification. Extremely satisfied in his service, my mites died, no eggs spared.
