No. They are a nuisance pest that feeds on plants and organic matter, and their pincers are not a threat to people or pets.

Not if the moisture and the harborage are corrected. The treatment knocks down the population, and the dry perimeter keeps the conditions from returning.

A treatment runs $120 to $250 in Green Tree, with crawl space work from $200 to $450. Earwig control is often included in a quarterly pest plan.
Q: Why do I have so many earwigs?
Earwigs need moisture and shelter. The damp soil, the leaf litter, and the mulch along the foundation give them the conditions they need, and they move indoors when it dries out.
