Earwigs in the garden

Your garden can be a source of earwigs and you would need to take care of these infestations so that your plants are not affected. Earwigs only come out at night and hide during the day. Their favorite hiding spots are rotting tree stumps, cracks in the trunks of trees and also beneath stones or the pots you have in your garden. Some of the loose boards you have around your house can hide these varmints. They would also be present in organic mulch you have put around your plants, especially if the area is shaded. Once you have located these areas use the pesticide baits earlier suggested and rid yourself of the earwigs.
