Yes it is a big deal and you need to get them out of there.

It is normally an indication that you did not pasteurize the substrate or casing layer good enough!

BTW, you can get a sun dew, Venus fly trap or a pitcher plant at the nursery they love the humidity and eat the nats.

I hate those damn things, they don't eat much but they are a pain in the ass.
I normally just put the casing outside because I don't like the gnats in my house.  They don't harm the shrooms much but I hate them.  Put a venus fly trap in there like Cyber said,  also a glass of wine or beer near a light works good.

I had some flying around my monotub yesterday and a glass of wine took care of most all of them, for the time being

Even if it is gnats and not fruit flies they can bring in contamination.  I use fly strips but if you get a big infestation it may be tough to get rid of them.
