Why Earwigs Thrive in Aubrey
Out of the Aubrey office earwigs come from the yard and from whatever is sitting on it. Stacked timber, sheet material, feed bags, equipment left flat on ground and the damp edge around outbuildings all hold them, and open land supplies plenty more. After rain the numbers rise quickly and they move toward the nearest structure.
Recent construction gives them a way in through unscreened weep holes and garage door corners, which are quick to close. We treat the perimeter and harborage around house and outbuildings, and we point at the material worth moving, because lifting a stack off the soil removes a population rather than treating it. Covered by the quarterly plan.

How Our Exterminators Treat Earwigs in Aubrey
Anything lying flat on soil is harborage, and on acreage there is usually a lot of it. Recent construction then gives them a way in through weep holes and garage corners.
Break harborage
The damp band against your foundation is the nursery.
Earwigs live in the damp band where mulch, leaf litter and stones meet your foundation. Pulling that band back a few inches, thinning wet mulch and elevating pots takes away the daytime refuge that feeds the nightly traffic indoors.
Treat band
Foundation line, thresholds, weep holes, their commute.
Targeted treatment goes exactly where they travel, the foundation line, weep holes, door thresholds and the undersides of their harborage objects. The Zero Gap perimeter is built for this traffic pattern.
Dry entries
Dry thresholds turn every earwig indoors into a dead end.
Door sweeps, corrected downspouts and fixed irrigation overspray close the damp routes inside. An earwig that gets into a dry house dies on its own; the fixes make sure the next one does too.
Where Earwigs Get Into Aubrey Homes
Earwigs move from damp beds into newer Aubrey homes through weep holes and garage corners, and outbuildings with open doors give them a second place to gather.
- 01
Weep holes
Directly above the damp mulch band where earwigs spend the day, the shortest walk inside.
- 02
Garage door bottom
Doormats and thresholds shelter clusters; the corner gap lets the night shift in.
- 03
Utility penetrations
Hose bibs and slab gaps stay wet, which is everything an earwig wants.
- 04
Dryer vent
Warm humid exhaust marks the laundry room as the wettest room from outside.
- 05
HVAC penetrations
Condensate keeps the soil at the unit permanently damp; a standing earwig colony spot.

Aubrey Earwig Control FAQ
Below are answers on sudden earwig numbers, how they get in, mulch, rain and the recurring plan.
Fresh landscaping is usually the answer. Deep new mulch laid straight against a young Aubrey foundation is exactly the damp organic bedding they need, and a newly planted bed can hold a very large population within one season. They are outside animals; and the ones that reach your rooms took a wrong turn rather than moving in deliberately.
Under thresholds and through the gap beneath a door that sees heavy use, most often the one from the garage or a patio. On an Aubrey build those openings exist by default rather than through damage. Since the bed producing them sits a few feet the other side, the distance is short and the traffic is constant through warm damp weather.
Not remove it, but pull it back from the wall so there is a clear band of ground rather than damp material sitting against the brickwork. On an Aubrey property that single change makes a noticeable difference between visits. Treatment then works the bed itself, which is where the population actually is rather than where you are finding them.
Almost none indoors. They do not breed inside, they do not damage the structure and they are not a health concern. Outside they will chew soft plant growth, which matters if you are establishing a new Aubrey garden and less otherwise. The reason people call is almost always the sheer number of them rather than any actual damage being done.
Because heavy rain floods the mulch and ground they live in and pushes them toward drier shelter, which is the house. In Aubrey that produces a surge a day or two after a storm rather than a steady presence. The treatment allows for it, and the threshold sealing matters most precisely in those few days when pressure is highest.
The harborage rather than the rooms. Treating the bed against the wall, the ground under any decking and the mulch line addresses the population, while treatment at the threshold stops the few that would otherwise wander in. Spraying skirting boards indoors deals with individuals that were already lost and does nothing whatever about where they came from in the first place.
Usually within a week or two of the outdoor work, though a wet spell can produce a short-lived surge afterwards that has nothing to do with the treatment failing. If they are still coming through in numbers a month later, that generally points to a second harborage somewhere on the property, and a return visit to find it costs nothing.
Yes, rather than needing a separate program. Earwigs sit inside general household pest coverage, and the work overlaps heavily with what is already being done at the perimeter for other things. A property with heavy planting may need the mulch line worked more thoroughly, and that is a conversation about the visit itself rather than a different contract.
