After racking a Blackberry (from berries) batch, we had the sediment settling in wine bottles to try and salvage a little wine for topping up the carboys after the next racking.
The bottles had a bung and three piece airlock with Vodka in it. A couple months later there were tiny gnats in the airlocks.
Question-Did we let the Vodka in the airlocks get too low at some point?
Or, do gnats sometimes get into airlocks?
The 5 gallon carboys with the same style airlocks with Vodka had no gnats in them.
We are not going to use the wine that had gnats in the airlocks as it had a film on top of the wine.
Thanks for any advice or answers.
