Summit 116-12 Quick Kill Mosquito Bits, 8-Ounce

Absolutely amazing product! I bought a peace lily plant, which is very beautiful and thrives wonderfully, giving me bloom after bloom. However, it was also badly infested with fungus gnats. I watered it once with this product, and all the flies were gone. It’s been 4 months since, and they have never returned.I’m so happy I bought this item. It’s expensive, but definitely worth the price.

Mosquitoe larve in the pond, within 2 hours they was just floating, will definitely keep stocked up with this! You do not need a lot, a tea spoon worked wonders for me!

I have a serious fungus gnat problem (we live near quite a damp park and I have 50 tropical plants). I’ve been using these mosquito bits consistently for a few weeks now and they do help to reduce fungus gnats. However, they don’t do it 100% - they’re best used as part of a hybrid method approach - with yellow sticky traps and a spray. The size of the pack is ok, maybe slightly small for the price, but not daylight robbery by any means.That said, I have repurchased these a few times as I find them better than other solutions. They are easy to use (soak in water for 30 minutes to an hour and then drain them out - do NOT leave them sitting in water for ages as they will start to smell pretty bad).

These have literally saved my family from a fungus go at infestation and continued to prevent their return by simply adding a spoonful to my watering can and letting them soak for 10 mins before watering my indoor plants. This one bag is lasting ages so well worth having them in your armoury if you are fighting the fungus gnat battle.

First point: instructions are not the best. Measurements are US. As far as i figure for UK, 4 US tablespoons equals 60ml… and one US gallon is 3.8LThere is no guidance on how much mixed solution to apply. I soaked my pots, which is ironic as this is the last thing you need for FN!!Soooo… second packet later, many repottings,(PS- sterilise your compost first - i microwave mine on high !! And wash old compost off roots then soak bare roots in super strong mosquito bits solution before repotting) about the eighth week of ‘soaking’ the pots with solution and loads of sticky traps i might be winning. Either way i’m not applying any more or the plants will die if root rot. I think it helps, but i needed to use other measures too and keep reapplying!!!Will try nematodes next if the problem resurges

I bought this for standing water in plant trays and birdbaths that were turning into mosquito nurseries. The first time, I used way too much and blew through the bag—turns out, you only need a small sprinkle for it to work. Now that I know that, it’s surprisingly good value.It doesn’t smell, doesn’t cloud the water, and within a day or two, the larvae are gone. No fuss, no mess—just dead mosquitoes before they can hatch. I’ll be keeping a bag on hand all summer.

Why did you choose this product over others?:Did not work for me. After two applications, with still one more to do, there are more fungus gnats on the yellow sticky traps than there ever were before when I was using another product. These mosquito bits are just too expensive to keep using on a regular basis. I've resorted now to spraying good old fashioned fly spray when I see the adults flying around. Since doing that I haven't seen any.

I was plagued with fungus gnats for the great war of 2019/21. They were everywhere in the house, buzzing around my head at night and in the day. At a glance, it didn't seem a big issue, but clearly, I underestimated the problem. I have a lot of house plants and thought I isolated the problem to a peace lily and aloe vera plant. In my naivety, I thought I could eradicate the problem by putting the plant in the cold, so out went the peace lily in the frost. The peace lily did not survive, but fungus gnats have natural antifreeze, so they carried on regardless.I read that Diatomaceous Earth would solve the issue, as the larvae like moist soil. I convinced myself this worked, but the odd gnat would still do a flyby. I then moved onto sticky yellow fly paper on all the plants, and it was then I became aware of the extent of the problem. The papers became covered in hundreds of gnats. Far more than I ever could have imagined. This reduced the issue, but the papers were still accruing more bodies daily.It was then I came across mosquito bites. It had been a long 18 months and I wasn't hopeful. I filled a watering can at the base with the pellets, and added water as directed. It gives off a foul sewer smell, but this smell doesn't travel, but is evident when you pour. After a couple of months of weekly watering, I noticed the reduction in gnats on the yellow paper, and this year I have yet to see a gnat. I declared the war over this summer. I have removed all the sticky yellow paper from the plant pots and have lived a gnat free existence since. The plants have thrived, I assume because the larvae are no longer eating the roots.I can heartily recommend this. I just wish someone had told me sooner, as I lost some good plants along the way.
