Do you guys know how to get rid of gnats on an outdoor patio?

[Longtoothbuck]

Inhale through your mouth. Good protein. But seriously, I donâ€t know. Had same issue last year and tried a number of sprays and nothing worked. Maybe the spray killed eggs because no problem this year.

Suddenly, my outdoor patio where I grill has gnats.  I have no idea how to get rid of them.  Any ideas?

Move out of Baltimore...

Thanks.  I put a plastic container with water, white vinegar, sugar and dish soap on a table on my patio.  I'll let you know tomorrow if it catches any.

My little trap caught exactly ZERO gnats.  LOL.

Are they still there or did it scare them all away?

They to have breed somewhere. Thatâ€s going to be in damp soil. Let your plant beds and yard dry out completely between watering. Thatâ€ll kill them. You can put down a sand layer over exposed soil in things like flower beds.

They really hate skunk stench. If you set one of those suckers off, the gnats will be gone for good.

[Brutus Buckeye]

The secret is that they have to have their hind legs firmly planted on the ground in order to generate the force that propels the spray. So you gotta gently lift him up by the tail, just enough to pick his hind legs up off of the ground. Then you carefully turn him around so that his hind end is pointed away from you, then let him down slowly, and he'll spray it all away from ya just as soon as his back feet hit the ground.

Think I'd like to see you demonstrate this for us.

If you ever encounter a skunk, it is a great way to make sure he doesn't gitcha.

Or, if you are camping with some of your closest buddies... pretty mean prank.

Would this work?  I use it hunting and it works for me but It may not reach a big enough area.

We use Coyote Urine around our yard to keep the skunks away.  Natural Predator .
It drives my GSD crazy trying to mark over it. 
But she hasn't gotten sprayed by a Skunk , but both my neighbors dogs have. 
Of course they won't treat their yards for Grubs and carelessly scattered bird feed around their yard no matter what i tell them that both Grubs and birdseed our a 5* dinner for skunks.
