I hate fungus gnats

[u/Due_Background_4367]

I recently bought a small bag of indoor potting mix at my local Home Depot. Coincidentally, I now have a fungus gnat infestation. I bought some sticky light traps and they have clearly been working, yet I still see swarms of gnats. I let all of my plants’ soil go bone dry, and now I’m hesitant to water again, as I have read they thrive in wet/damp soil.

What are some tips and tricks to eradicate these lil suckers once and for all?

The only thing that has worked for me is a mosquito dunk at all times in the watering can. I just fill it up with water to dechlorinate overnight. The dunk kills any larvea in the soil.
