Need help identifying earwigs?

What causes earwig infestations?

Earwig infestations are driven by the need for moisture and shelter. Earwigs are attracted to damp, dark environments such as basements, bathrooms, and under mulch or leaf litter. High humidity levels and decaying organic matter can create ideal conditions for earwig activity. Structural gaps provide entry points into homes.

How do I get rid of an earwig infestation?

To get rid of an earwig infestation, start by reducing moisture and removing hiding places around your home. Keep your home dry by fixing leaks and using dehumidifiers. Seal cracks and gaps in walls, windows, and doors to prevent entry. Use insecticides or traps in high-activity areas to target earwigs. Remove piles of leaves, mulch, and other organic debris where earwigs can hide. Ensure proper drainage around your property to avoid standing water. Regularly clean and vacuum infested areas, paying attention to basements, bathrooms, and kitchens. Trim vegetation away from the foundation of your home. Keep outdoor lights to a minimum as they attract earwigs. Store firewood and other materials away from your home’s exterior. If the infestation is severe or persistent, contact Aptive for a tailored pest management plan that includes comprehensive inspection, targeted treatments, and preventive measures to keep earwigs under control. Regular maintenance and proactive measures can help prevent future earwig infestations.
