Anyone else having problems with these little buggers yet? I am seeing some and the soil isn't even barely wet. It seems like it would be too cold for them right now but I guess not. In the past I have used stuff like Bt (knock out gnat etc.) for my other plants. Is this safe for the epies?
Plus I am rooting some and didn't want to water them all that much (with the bt product you water it in...) Also, has anyone found that a layer of sand works to deter them with epies?
Thanks
