Are fungus gnats harmful to tarantulas? We recently had a fight with them in our house plants and I assume some may have found their way into my ts substrate. Should I worry?
It's safe for the tarantula?They sell a product that is volcanic glass to put on your plant...looks like perlite. It actually cuts the reproductive organs somehow on the gnats and they cant breed anymore.

They use it in hydroponic growing. I've used it before and it works great.
No...they use to use volcanic glass but I think its recycled glass now.@Arachnoclown is it like this?
cant see volcanic 'glass' in amazon search (in UK anyway)
Can it be in the same room if for example a really damp tray was set up with this stuff to stop the egg laying cycle?

No, diatomaceous earth is more of a powder. Thus is a recycled glass, kinda like pebblesIs it that diatomaceous earth stuff?

Yes...its non toxic. It's just glass. Dont want to mistake it up with vermiculite though.thanks @Arachnoclown , looks like a UK available equivalent?
same question.. can this be used on top of a very damp layer of substrate to attract all the gnats within my spider room (but not directly in the spider enclosure)?
