Apart from vinegar, fruits, and sugar, gnats are also attracted to wine.
So, let’s tell you how you can leverage this to create a gnat trap with wine to get rid of gnat annoyance.
Wine is a product made from fermented grapes. So, no wonder, gnats are attracted to it.
You don’t have to use fresh wine for this. Instead, get some old, leftover wine.
Find a bowl or jar and fill it halfway with the red wine. Then, add two to three drops of dish soap to it. Stir the solution to mix them properly.
Keep the jar or bowl outdoors where you find most gnats. Replace the mixture if you still have gnats moving around.
As said earlier, gnats are attracted to the smell of wine. Being attracted, they come to feed on wine, but get stuck and drown due to the dish soap. Dish soap is essential for the trap to be effective as it is the thing that helps trap the gnats. Without it, gnats would feed on wine and pose a bigger problem for you.
Use it as a trap to get rid of gnats outdoors in your porch or garden.
We hope you benefit from this information and can drive the annoying pests away.
