Wanna hear a 100% true and terrifying tale of just how evil these things are, that is guaranteed to give you nightmares? Okay, but don't say I didn't warn you!!! One year, in middle school, a bunch of us thought that it would be a blast to float a local river. We looked around and instead of going for the customary inner tube, we grabbed a "Tom Sawyer" like wooden raft (think large pallet) from a backyard. We lugged it down to the river, then climbed aboard and set off for a day of fun. What started as a grand adventure quickly turned into the river float from hell. As we drifted along we began to notice a couple of earwigs wandering across the planks..... There would be no joy on the river this day. The longer we floated the lower the raft submerged into to river. The lower the raft submerged, the greater the number of earwigs, until there were HUNDREDS, all scrambling from their hidey-holes, looking for a dry spot to haul themselves up onto. In desperation they quickly discovered that if they scaled US they could remain dry! As the raft sank ever deeper, they, and we, were soon fully in the river. We all floated at the same rate, human and earwig alike, so there was no escaping them! Soon our heads were their only escape they could find. Girl or boy made no difference, we were all most unhappy. We had no choice but to haul ourselves onto the shore, which was thick with thorny brambles. Tired, cut up, and defeated we made our way home..... each of us hating earwigs that much more. Yup, I'm no fan.

If you still have an earwig problem, buy some insect killer and spray/sprinkle it under any object that sit on the ground in your yard. Like crickets and other nocturnal insects, they require damp, dark places to hide during the day, so take those kinds of places away from them, and they'll disappear. They don't live in your house, they just get in while wondering/hunting. Guaranteed when you flip over something laying outside in the yard, you'll find a colony. Pretty simple to get rid of them, if you keep a tidy yard.

All apartments have cockroaches. They lie in wait for you to fall asleep so they can crawl all over you. But just so you know, cockroaches are far worse than earwigs, because a cockroach doesn't have the ability to walk backwards, and can only crawl forward. So if they crawl in your nose while you're sleeping, you have to wait for it to crawl all the way to the back of your throat to spit it out. Ever wake up coughing or a tickle in your throat? Probably a bug. Their spiny legs will prevent you from blowing them out through your nose too. But if one crawls in your ear, they can only keep crawling further in. Then they panic and start scratching, which is extremely painful and you can only remove it with curved tweezers b/c it'll go past the curve in your ear canal. Sleep tight.

Do you know good ways to protect fruit and vegetable plants from earwigs?

@RovePestControl

Жыл бұрын

To protect your fruit and vegetable plants from earwigs, you can try a few methods. Creating a barrier with diatomaceous earth around your plants can deter them. You can also set up traps using rolled-up newspaper or cardboard tubes, placing them near your plants overnight and disposing of them in the morning. Additionally, reducing excess moisture in your garden and removing any debris where earwigs might hide can help. Experiment with these techniques and see which works best for you!

@iCazZiStronZi

Жыл бұрын

@@RovePestControl I have tried the diatomaceous earth method and it seems to work, the only issue is if the soil is wet or when you water the plants and wet the diatomaceous earth it becomes more ineffective and I find myself having to constantly re-apply it which can make it a very expensive method because my garden is pretty large with about just over 30 fruit and vegetable plants I would say. I tend to keep my garden fairly clean of debris, but my garden is surrounded with stone retaining walls which seems to be like an earwig paradise lol they love to live in the cracks between the stones in the wall. I have never tried the tube traps, I think I will try this next. Do I just simply leave the tubes on the ground near the plants? Or is there something else I have to do, like put some sort of bait inside or something like that? I appreciate the help, fingers crossed that this will help.

I have a n earwig in my house, I had one in my place about a month ago I thought it was a cockroach also had 2 of them in here about 3 years ago when I first moved in. Had bug guy in thinking they were cock roaches he didn’t think so but put a whole lot of these sticky trap things but haven’t caught any until this morning not caught but crawling around got into plastic bag to figure out what it was. What can I do ?

The last weeks they have been everywhere. What can I domt about it. Without killing them.

Bite of earwig was irrationaly painfull for me...

Sounds like you're dealing with a persistent problem. It might be time to consider professional pest control services.

I just got tapped bated I though you said that I gave ear wigs in my ear

We start to notice few month ago . Starting be at front door little by little it was hundreds they crawl into or threw front door . Long story short we called someone exterminate Well next few days we seen thousands died all around house. Tomorrow there coming back exterminate again we are finding inside house not sure where there coming in from now. I hate this bugs I found few in my bedroom so many else where!!!

Yikes! That sounds like a bit of an earwig invasion. It might be a good idea to consider some pest control measures to keep them at bay. 🕷️🚫

I slept at 11pm and end up waking up around 3am out of my sleep because I thought I felt something crawling on my body ignored it and was trying to go back to sleep I then felt something crawling right behind my ear and of course human nature I slapped it with my hand and pinched it with my fingers to get a grip of it still not knowing what it was because I sleep with lights off, so I turn my lights on and see it’s a bug that I don’t know of and drop it back on my bed it’s still alive but disabled, so I grab my phone download a bug identifier app and see what it is first thing that pops up is European earwig and I almost had a heart attack because in all locations, i snatched it right behind my ear and am now paranoid that if it laid eggs in my ear because it was a female🤦‍♂️ fuck

Hey guy, sorry but you are wrong about the name origin of "earwig". They are called ear wigs because they get into the ears of corn and eat the silk.

All I know is these ones do not fly, being from New Mexico originally, I grew up hearing stories about the earwigs showing up with the spanish and decimating the native's corn. As far as I know europeans call them pincher bugs. Well that is because corn is native american not european. Not saying you are wrong but that is why I have learned.

The idea they crawl into your ear has absolutely nothing to do with why they're called earwigs. Their named (eare wicga), because the shape of their wing or 'wicga' is shaped like an ear 'eare'. Their name means ear-wing.

YOU ARE wrong. Earwigs were named like that because they love to crawl into your ears. Whether they lay eggs inside I don't know, but I have a friend that had to go to the doctor because an earwig got inside his ear while sleeping in his basement apartment.
