Ciao a tutti, mia moglie ed io siamo diventati amanti delle piante l’anno scorso e abbiamo acquistato molte piante (decorative e vegetali) e adoriamo prenderci cura di loro e far ricrescere quelle più piccole e ora abbiamo piante su ogni superficie su cui potremmo metterne una. L’anno scorso, in estate se ne vanno una quantità enorme di moscerini della frutta? (Ho aggiunto un’immagine) Di cui non potevamo liberarci. Abbiamo provato adesivi gialli, diversi spray che abbiamo trovato in Edeka. Sembrano ridurre il problema ma non risolverlo realmente. Abbiamo anche provato alcuni vermi (Nematoden) che ho trovato durante la ricerca su Google l’anno scorso. Ne ho ordinati alcuni e li ho provati ma non hanno risolto il problema. Ci è voluto un po’ di tempo per la consegna e li abbiamo utilizzati forse qualche giorno dopo il dovuto? (Ho letto che possono morire se non conservati in frigo). Tutte le mosche sono scomparse l’anno scorso quando faceva molto freddo, ma ora stanno tornando di nuovo. Stavo per ordinare di nuovo i worm e provarli, ma ho pensato di poter controllare qui se avete qualche consiglio per le soluzioni che possiamo trovare in Germania?

I guess in one of your plants they survived. You have to constantly have yellow stickers and water your plants with a certain detergent that kills the eggs / larvae in the soil. You have to do that weekly and over a certain timeframe because of their reproduction cycle. Did you add new soil to one of your plants? Maybe the new soil was contaminated. Most of the time this is a really long fight. A solution could be to replace the soil on ALL plants hoping that the new one is not contaminated.
Gelbsticker, nematoden and cover the soil of every plant with 1cm sand and don’t water to much. Water with Nematoden everytime. These are not fruitflies but Trauermücken
Fruit Ninja, Amazon
These are not fruit flies. As mentioned yellow sticky cards should help. Go in there and ask for ‚Gelbkarten‘
I went to hagebaum and got one those fly eating plants. It does the job really well. Little guy, doesn’t cost much but it atracts them and eats most of them
Just mix some water, vinegar and a drop of dish soap in a glass.
Place it near where the most fruit flies are and they will be attracted by the vinegar but will drown due to not floating on the surface as the dish soap destroys the surface tension of the liquid.
My wife and i use wine/sekt corks and place ine in each plant we have and a few near our fruit bowl. No more for us.
My wife also uses the yellow stickers for the bigger plants to thin out the bug population
Those are fungus gnats (Trauermücken).
Put neem oil into your irrigation water for one month, but very thrifty, not too much.
They will not disapear instantly, because the oil works only at the fresh born flies in the earth. It will not kill them, but makes them infertible.
It will take its time, but except nematodes this will help 100%
Just use Granulat
Something that helped me to get rid of Trauermücken is covering the soil in your plant pots with a thick layer of bird sand. It’s like 0.65€ for a 2.5kg sack at your local dm. The small grain size creates an impenetrable barrier for the flies. They can’t lay their eggs and die off, and the ones already in the soil can’t get out.
The downside is that for a while you’ll have to water your plants from the bottom, meaning you fill the outer pot with water and let the plant soak in the water through the holes in the bottom, in order to not disturb the sand.
Also Gelbsticker. Granted, a big yellow piece of paper covered in dead flies won’t look very nice, but at least they get rid of the problem.
Trauermücken.
Lots of Gelbsticker. Nematodes. Covering the soil with stones or sand. Making sure the soil can breath from below usually they have their nests there. Changing the soil with a layer of stones or perlite and coffee powder ( caffeine kill the larva). Placing water traps with vinegar and soap.
The goal should be to prevent adult flies to lay eggs.
Try Culinex. It’s originally intended to fight mosquitos in ponds and such. But it also helps against these gnats.
