...God had nothing to do with it.....Good God.
Got 'em at my house, too. I think they are coming up out of the drains in the sinks. I hate them! Seems like this happens about twice a year.....
Google killing gnats in drains... there is a lot of info.. some environmentally friendly, also orkin website has a lot of info about breeding cycles and getting rid of them.. good luck
wow ... when I saw the title of this thread ... I immediately thought ..
oops .... wrong kinda little friends ...

...here's an idea Jo....
GNTLGNT, you always make me laugh! You're awesome!As for the problem, I always have it at least once a year... Although, there are not so many of them. I guess these things do not care in which country they are. Anyway, at my place, they usually disappear after some time.
Good luck, I hope they "buzz off" soon.
...Thanks honey, bringing a smile is my ultimate compliment....

I had this problem and found that putting ice cubes down the garbage disposal on a regular basis helped.
No. Just no.

Scott- I don't think I will try this, I maybe get rid of them at once, but I also get rid of my apartment at the same time. But thanks for the tip.
Spiders!!
I hate Spiders.. I was doing a big housecleaning in my apartment yesterday and today seems that they are less. I just hope to get rid of them all soon.
Normally this would be an over reaction, GNT. But with the this weather, Needs Must!! Just for a little warmth.......here's an idea Jo....
You could always get some sand, an umbrella, a cool drink and pretend you're in the tropics.Spiders!!

Anyone else shocked that Jojo used the b-word? Heh! Guess that means something. Strange that that is happening in colder weather. Had some flies coming out of the woodwork this porch I was working on earlier. Had to put heat in the porch and the heat must have awakened the flies lying dormant behind the woodwork. Common black fly, house fly, whatever. Have had flies small ones make an appearance when we've had tomatoes ripening on the flat surfaces.
Good luck with them bugs, unfortunately I got no idea how to get rid of them.
A few years ago, the janitor of my building delivered a note about "unidentified insects found in the sauna department" I think they suspected them to spread all over the building, but that "unidentified" was kind of too much information.

definitely check any potted plants you have nearby.
even if they didn't originate there (the potted plant) they like to set up housekeeping in the dirt and it's almost impossible to get rid of them then without getting rid of the plant
just don't want you losing any houseplants you're fond of

The B-word? Bananas? Buzz off? oh - ba*ta*ds - right. Maybe they have decided that the moderators have too many other important jobs on here, so no need to stand by with the bar of soap to "wash out our mouths", so to speak.
I think Uncle Steve would approve.
