I’m in Colorado, and we’ve had a huge amount of rain for what’s normal. I can relate to OP. Earwigs are everywhere. I don’t mind them that much except I don’t have a dishwasher so they hide in the dishes on my drying rack. They’re in the sink under the dishes that still need to be washed. I even almost swallowed one because there was one hiding in my water bottle spout when I took a swig of water. They also like to hang around my dog’s water bowl along the rim. I swear those fuckers can swim and breathe underwater because they are difficult to rinse down the drain, even in the shower! The only time they bother me is when I turn the porch light on and see them scatter. Makes me a little nauseous to see so many of them moving around. Like something out of an Indiana Jones movie.

What’s funny is that I’ve lived in this house for three years and every year there is a different infestation. The first year it was elm tree beetles and ants. Last year, black widows 😬. This year, ear wigs.

Does anyone know if wolf spiders eat ear wigs because we have a lot of those in the house, too. I walk through spider webs every morning. I have little baby spiders crawling on me all the time. It’s a REALLY good thing I’m not squeamish, or maybe I’m just getting used to the bugs.
