Apparently drenching you soil with 1 part hydrogen peroxide mixed with 4 parts water kills fungus gnats and even thrips larvae. But then again, google says so so Im skeptical. Anyone tried this before?
Reason Im asking is I recently bought new soil and got thrips in my grow room now. Im looking for a way to sterilise soil for both fungus gnats and thrips before using it from now on and was thinking either drenching with neem oil or H2O2. Google also says it kills the eggs
Im really starting to wonder how these commercial growers sterilise their new soil before use. No way they shove all that dirt in a huge oven lol.
