They may look like mini monsters, but earwigs are actually allies in disguise.
These small, flat-bodied insects are often misunderstood. While their name sounds spooky (no, they don’t live in ears), earwigs are largely harmless and incredibly useful outdoors. They help keep your garden in balance by munching on dead leaves, decaying matter, and even common garden pests.
Earwigs also love the dark and damp—so if you spot them under a flowerpot or mulch, just know they’re doing their part in the ecosystem. With their unique pincers and quiet work ethic, earwigs prove that not all bugs are bad news.
