Recently I have lost a pot containing a few s. Debile and I wasn't sure why that pot did terrible and the one next to it was thriving. Today I flipped the peat moss mix around and found a few fungus gnat larvae which probably caused the deaths. Now this is quite concerning as I do have a few other carnivorous plants near that pot and I'm quite afraid that they might have some fungus gnat larvae eating away at them. How shall I go about with this? Should I just repot some?

I've never really had a problem with fungus gnats, more of an annoyance and they feed the pings.

If I ever get fungus gnats in my terrariums I just throw a capensis in there. I have put a few colonies extinct with them. I keep a couple around just in case but I haven't had any problems since.

Sounds like a great idea thanks! The only slight problem is that my S. Debile is growing by a window in low humidity and my capensis is in a high humidity and under lights so it might take a while to adjust the capensis to window growing.
