Dog Pecker Gnats

I haven't read this on any other post so I thought I see what you all think. I checked my brf cakes in shotgun fc and guess what i found, that's right, about a hundred little flying dog pecker gnats. If you don't know what those are, they are those small gnats that swarm around a dog's pecker in the heat of the summer. Anyone else ever have this? aside from squashing them one at a time in my nice clean perlite, how do I rid my fc of these flying pests?

Attach the hose to your vacuum and suck em out.
It'll be a war of attrition but you'll break their life cycle if you get the adults every day.
cover the chamber sides with nylon stocking material to keep them from getting in again....don't suck up your perlite!
