If you find these scary-looking insects in your home, you had better know what it means

While most of us can tolerate a few bugs in the home, some insects are harder to live with than others. For those in rural areas, summer often brings flies, ants, spiders, and more trying to invade our homes.

Earwigs, in particular, can be quite unwelcome. These creepy crawlies, while harmless, are far from cute. As one person noted, “Spiders building their webs in my corners I can live with, and the odd fly buzzing around the kitchen is hardly going to ruin my day. I take exception, however, to earwigs.”

A useful tip from Facebook user Alicia Alexander suggests a simple hack for dealing with earwigs. She recommends “filling a shallow bowl with half a cup of olive oil” and placing it outside. Earwigs are attracted to the oil but can’t escape once they enter the bowl. Alicia shared photos showing how many earwigs she trapped in less than 24 hours.

While earwigs in the home might indicate issues like rotting wood, their presence isn’t typically harmful. “Earwigs seeking warmer conditions inside your house isn’t anything to be alarmed about,” the article states.
