Earwigs!!
Earwigs......pincher bugs......SATAN!!
They are snacking on the roots in one of my gardens....WTF?!?!?
Has anybody had any experience in getting rid of these jerks in the root zone?
And if so how did you do it? I barely noticed I had them right now when I was watering. They aren't eating any foliage. They are snacking on the damn roots.
I have just been watering heavily every day, and that seems to make them back off of the roots for a while.
I have always known I had some type of soil dwelling bugs in my planting bed but couldn't quite put my finger on it.
Help would be much appreciated.

I have used news papers wet, and pick them up and throw them away 3 - 4 times a day.
That is a great idea. But I will feed it 2 the chickens!
OMG I hate earwigs....I have so many of them where I live. I know what you can try:
Take a few containers....like large deli salad containers and 1/2 fill with soy sauce. Poke some holes just big enough for them to fit trough and put a few around your perimeter. They should smell the soy sauce and climb their ways to a salty death.
