Earwig Control for your Garden!




                    In the above pictures you will see damage caused by earwigs and also a earwig oil trap. You can make the trap at home. It is easy to make and is not toxic to your garden.

                   To make the trap cut about two inches off the bottom of a soda bottle. You can also use a saucer if you would like. Fill the saucer with vegetable oil. Place one or two tea spoons of soy sauce in the oil and stir it in.

                   Place the trap at the trunk of your tree or next to your vegetables. The earwigs will crawl in the oil and die. You can then strain out the earwigs and reuse the oil . Let me know if this works for you or if you have a good idea also!
