Earwig Control Services | My Pest Control Pty Ltd
Safe, Local & Long-Lasting Earwig Solutions – Melbourne-Wide
At My Pest Control Pty Ltd, we help homeowners and businesses across Melbourne eliminate the stress and damage caused by earwig infestations. Although earwigs aren’t dangerous, they’re unpleasant, can damage plants, and often sneak indoors in large numbers.
Our proven, eco-safe treatments stop earwigs where they hide, breed, and enter — delivering long-term control with expert advice to stop them coming back.
What Are Earwigs?
Earwigs (Forficula auricularia) are moisture-loving insects known for their forceps-like pincers.
Despite their fearsome look, they don’t bite or sting — but they can cause property damage and
discomfort.
Key Facts:
● Active at night; hide during the day
● Attracted to moist, dark spaces
● Common after rain or garden watering
● Known to chew seedlings, petals, and fabrics
Signs You Have an Earwig Problem
● Sightings in bathrooms, laundry, or under mats
● Pincer-marked damage on seedlings or vegetables
● Earwigs under pots, mulch, decking or damp cardboard
● Bad odour when disturbed
Our Professional Earwig Control Strategy

● Check entry points, cracks, gaps, and utility areas
● External Perimeter Spray – around paving, baseboards, mulch beds
● Indoor Residual Spray – for wet zones like laundries, kitchens, and bathrooms
● Insecticidal Dust – in roof voids, cracks, subfloors, and weep holes
● Traps & Monitoring – optional for sensitive or repeat-risk areas
● Reduce watering, adjust mulch depth
● Seal access points and improve airflow
