Gnat Trap Recipe
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon of sugar
- A few drops of dish soap
- 1/4 - 1/2 cup warm water
Instructions
1: Add the apple cider vinegar to a small container or bowl and stir in the sugar.
2: Add a few drops of dish soap to the mixture.
3: Gradually add 1/4 cup warm water.
4: Stir the mixture so the sugar dissolves and the
dish soap is evenly distributed.
5: Stir in more water to achieve the desired
consistency. The mixture should be liquid enough to
release its scent into the air but not too watery.
6: Cover the container with plastic wrap and secure
it with a rubber band or tape.
7: Use a toothpick or fork to poke several small
holes in the plastic wrap.
8: Place the trap in areas where gnats are present,
such as near houseplants or in the kitchen.
9: Check the trap regularly and empty it out as
needed, replacing the vinegar mixture as it becomes
full.
Notes
Adjust the amount of warm water based on your preferences and the trap's effectiveness. It
is best to start with smaller amounts of water and gradually add more until you reach the
desired consistency.

You don't have to put plastic wrap on the container; it will still catch gnats.
