Earwigs are nocturnal pests that tend to hide during the day in dark, damp areas like mulch, under rocks, or in moist basements. They can become a nuisance when they invade homes seeking moisture.
Though earwigs are not harmful to humans, their appearance can be alarming, and they may cause damage to plants. If you’re experiencing an earwig infestation, Simple Pest Management can help assess the situation, providing expert solutions to eliminate these pests and prevent future invasions in your home.

European earwigs are a reddish-brown color and are generally just over half an inch. Although these pests don’t look like they can fly, they can fly short distances. Nevertheless, despite this capability, they typically opt for scurrying instead of taking to the air. These critters are nocturnal and prefer to hunt at night, and prefer to hide in your house during the day. If you see them roaming your floors during the day, it’s likely that they wandered in looking for shelter. An interesting fact about the European earwig is that the females will relocate their 30-60 eggs multiple times in search for optimal conditions for them.
The ring-legged earwig is dark brown in color, but has pale yellowish-white legs with reddish-brown splotches. Like the European earwig, this species is just over half an inch in length. The ring-legged earwig is more abundant in southern California, but can be found in the non-mountainous areas of the northern part of the state.
Striped earwigs are reddish-brown and are the biggest species of the three, measuring around an inch long. This type of earwig does not eat plants, so the vegetation in and around your home is safe! Instead, the striped earwig’s diet consists mainly of small insects, which is why they are considered beneficial.

The inspection process focuses on identifying potential hiding spots, such as damp areas and dark crevices around your property. The Simple Pest team looks for signs of an earwig infestation, like moisture build-up or visible pests. They inspect outdoor spaces, including gardens and lawns, where earwigs often breed. Indoors, they check basements, bathrooms, and other damp environments. After inspection, the team provides a tailored treatment plan based on the severity of the infestation.
Outdoor earwig treatment typically involves the application of eco-friendly sprays and baits around key areas of the yard and garden. Simple Pest technicians target entry points and high-moisture zones like mulch beds, plant bases, and foundation walls. They focus on creating a protective barrier to keep earwigs from entering the home. The team uses products that are safe for pets and children while effectively reducing the earwig population in outdoor areas.
Indoor treatment focuses on eliminating any earwigs that have entered the home. Technicians use targeted treatments, including non-toxic sprays and traps, to handle infestations in high-risk areas like bathrooms, kitchens, and basements. The goal is to not only eliminate existing pests but also to address moisture issues that may attract earwigs. The service includes sealing entry points and offering guidance on preventing future infestations by managing indoor humidity and moisture levels.
