Fungus gnat larva damage or other issues? Please diagnose!

[Tomcheese]

Almost three week old seedlings. All hybrid seeds done by cross breading. FFOF soil and in solo cups. Noticed fungus gnats at week two. Started using gnatrol for a soil drench a few days ago. Not sure if it's continued larva damage, root bound issues, or something I'm missing. Open to advice and suggestions. Thanks!

I'm almost positive they're gnats. The few that I've caught in sticky traps resemble the image below

Thanks for the advice with the gnats. I think despite their presence my plants are severely root bound. I flipped one of my less promising seedlings out of its container and its wrapped up in roots from top to bottom. I'll transplant and hope it solves the problem!

It's a small infestation. Haven't seen more than 3 to 5 at a time.
