I'm not sure if compost is the problem or not. Two yrs ago I transplanted some plants with Miracle-Gro and got hundreds of these pesty insects. I had tried everything to no avail, so I kept my plants in buckets of water for about 2 months, then used Bayer 3 in 1 potting soil. I didn't have any more problems till I transplanted a couple of more plants with Miracle-Gro once again (I couldn't find any of the Bayer 3-1). Now I have gnats again, and I'm going to call their company. I was told that Bayer filters their soil so this makes it a better product. I was recently told to try one capful of Bleach to two gallons of water. They don't like the smell. I will try anything once.
