Gnat-b-gone
I live in a real humid place too, we have a lot of lakes around where I live and several of them are nothing more than swamps, so we also get a lot of the hellspawn known as the Gnat.
I don't pretend to have gnats as bad as you, but I thought I might share some things that might help a little in stopping the problem. 1. My mother does this one, and it seems to work although I am not sure how... Take a water-proof ziploc bag and fill it with water. My mother says it gets rid of gnats, flies, mosquitoes. Not really sure if it gets rid of them, but it can't help. 2.My grandma showed me this way to be rid of gnats, and it really works. Take a plastic bag, the kind you put fruit in at the store, and put a few peelings in it. Put it on the dish drainer or over the sink with the opening hanging down. The pests will fly inside to the peelings and are trapped. You can then dispose of them. 3. A friend's mom told me to get rid of gnats. Soak some cottonballs in peppermint oil and set them around you kitchen. Gnats apparently hate peppermint. If none of that works you can always go the bio warfare approach, just use a bug-bomb.
