Earwigs are common household pests in the UK, often found in gardens, greenhouses, and occasionally inside homes. While these pests are generally harmless to humans, their presence can be a nuisance. Earwigs tend to congregate in damp, dark areas, and they are known to cause damage to plants, fruit, and stored food.
At Prestige Pest Control, we offer effective earwig control services across the UK. Our team of trained pest control experts can help you identify, treat, and prevent earwig infestations, using safe and humane methods tailored to your specific needs.
Earwigs are small, nocturnal insects with distinctive pincers on their abdomen. They are typically around 10–15mm long and are commonly found in outdoor areas, such as gardens and greenhouses, where they can feed on plants, flowers, and vegetables. Earwigs also seek shelter indoors, particularly in dark and damp areas like basements, bathrooms, and attics.
Although earwigs do not pose a direct health risk to humans, they can cause significant damage to plants and crops, making them a particular concern for gardeners and farmers. Their ability to hide in small crevices means that they can be difficult to control once they infest your property.
Earwigs are mostly nocturnal and are active during the night, which makes them difficult to spot. However, there are several signs that may indicate an earwig infestation:
If you notice these signs, it’s important to act quickly to prevent further damage to your plants or property.
