Understanding Earwig Infestations
Earwigs thrive in dark, moist environments such as basements, bathrooms, and outdoor mulch beds. They often enter buildings in search of shelter and food, particularly during hot or dry conditions. Although they rarely bite, their presence is unpleasant, and large populations can lead to damage in gardens, potted plants, and stored goods.
Our Earwig Control Process
We begin with a thorough inspection to locate hiding areas, entry points, and possible breeding grounds. Treatments may include targeted applications in damp spaces, sealing entry points, and reducing moisture conditions that attract earwigs. Our goal is to remove the current infestation while putting preventive measures in place to stop them from returning.
Why Professional Earwig Control Matters
DIY traps and sprays often provide only temporary relief. Earwigs reproduce quickly and hide in hard-to-reach areas, making infestations difficult to control without professional expertise. By choosing expert earwig control, you eliminate the entire population and protect your property from future invasions.
