Default Earwigs are back

Hopefully my radish sprouts will be large enough
before the armies of earwigs come out in force.

It is going to be in the 80F's all week, which will
trigger a mash hatch of the buggers. Maybe ...?


sorry, no experience here with massive earwig
numbers, dunno much about them other than i see
a few here or there. i think the snakes, frogs,
toads, etc. must be eating them.

i've seen mention of traps for them (upside down
pots full of straw/grass/hay on sticks) vaguely
i recall that. see if you can google it, i'm off
to sleep...
