yo those are fungus gnates probly they lay eggs and the larvae feed off the organic stuff in your soil and eventualy eat roots there are plenty of methods to get rid of them try letting the soil dry out so it kills the larvae then put a glass of wine in the room to kill the mature ones good luck

i keep trying to plant vegatables in my apartment in north dakota and they start to grow about eight inches and then they stop growing or die. I see these little black flies around my house sometimes and tried to kill them by turning down the heat to forty degrees one day but they are still around. Could these tiny flies kill my plants. How do I get rid of them is they are the problem? thanks
