Pings will certainly catch many a fungus gnat - I've seen leaves covered in trapped gnats on pings I've kept in terrariums. Keeping pings to control fungus gnats is a bit of a conundrum however: The moisture necessary to keep a ping happy will mean its growing medium itself will be an additional source of fungus gnats.
