Earwigs invade Crown Point homes through foundation gaps and mulch beds during warm, humid weather. While harmless to humans, large populations damage garden plants and create an unsettling presence indoors. Our treatment targets earwig harborage areas and creates a perimeter barrier that keeps them outside where they belong.

Earwigs thrive in Crown Point's moist soil and dense mulch beds typical of Lake County landscaping. They shelter under landscape timbers, leaf piles, and mulch during the day and emerge at night to feed on soft plant tissue and decaying organic matter. When outdoor conditions become too wet or dry, they migrate indoors through gaps in foundations, window wells, and crawl space vents.
Though earwigs look alarming with their rear pincers, they rarely pinch humans and are not venomous. The real problems are garden damage and the psychological distress of finding dozens in basements, bathrooms, and utility rooms. Our treatment addresses the outdoor harborage zones that sustain earwig populations before they enter your home.
'Found earwigs under every rock in my garden and then noticed them inside near the back door. They treated the mulch beds and foundation. Not a single one inside since.'
'We had a serious earwig problem in our basement window wells. They treated the wells and surrounding soil and it was completely resolved in a week.'
'Earwigs were eating my hosta plants down to nubs. The granular treatment in the garden beds stopped the damage immediately. Very effective.'
