It looked like there was earwig ornaments all over the plant. I was so grossed out as I did not know they ate plants...parsley. I will try these things. I have potted plants on my back deck, so this will take some time to rid them.

But I will say they have quite a painful pinch!! So avoid contact if you can please. Another bug with a big bite is the charming ladybug.

I love my sweet bell peppers, which I never eat green, so by the time I wait for them to get ripe, the earwigs have bored a hole into the pepper and laid eggs inside. I have 30 pepper plants (grown organically) and almost never get any that the earwig hasn't damaged in some way.
