To get rid of earwigs in the garden, use diatomaceous earth or insecticidal sprays, and remove mulch or plant debris where earwigs hide. Keeping the garden dry will discourage them.

Earwigs are attracted to moist, dark areas, such as mulch or decaying plant material. Removing these hiding spots by cleaning up debris and using diatomaceous earth or insecticidal sprays will help control their population. Keeping the garden well-drained and free of excessive moisture will further deter earwigs from settling in your plants. Traps can also be used to capture earwigs.
