just go buy a bottle of white vinegar and put in a small bowl, cover bowl with cling wrap used in kitchens and leave a partial opening on top, the gnats will go to the smell of that....sit it on the counter top and bingo...gnats gone in few days........refresh vinegar off and on as needed

Ok, I leave a hole in the top of the clingfilm, but how will they smell the vinegar in the bottle ?

And why cover it in clingfilm ?.....So they can trampoline while getting high on vinegar ?

the vinegar is poured into the bowl,and the clingfilm stops them jumping out.

you can also just put cups of vinegar around with no clingfilm on...it does the job.
