Treat all plant surfaces including the undersides of leaves where most pests lay eggs. Repeat applications are usually required — follow the label's recommended interval between treatments to break the pest life cycle. Always apply during lights-off or in reduced light conditions to prevent leaf burn from foliar sprays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs Gnat Nix safe to use on plants in late flowering?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCheck the pre-harvest interval listed in the product instructions before applying Gnat Nix to plants in late flowering. Most pest control products specify a minimum number of days between last application and harvest. As a general rule, switch to the most plant-safe options available when within 2–3 weeks of harvest. Contact us at hello@apexgrow.com.au if you need guidance on safe late-flower pest management.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill Gnat Nix affect my beneficial insects?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBroad-spectrum pesticides can harm beneficial insects including predatory mites, lacewings, and ladybirds used in integrated pest management programs. If running beneficial insects, check whether Gnat Nix is selective or broad-spectrum before applying. Biological control programs and chemical pesticides are generally not compatible without a washout period between them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes Gnat Nix ship fast within Australia?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — Gnat Nix ships from our Australian warehouse with fast tracked delivery Australia-wide. Most east coast orders arrive within 2–5 business days. WA, NT, and TAS orders typically arrive within 5–12 business days.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Apex Grow","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43149216415807,"sku":null,"price":64.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/6898\/8479\/files\/Gnatnix.jpg?v=1776837215","url":"https:\/\/apexgrow.com.au\/products\/gnat-nix-fungus-gnat-control-australia","provider":"Apex Grow","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
