I notice while pulling weeds from my flowerbed that I had earwigs everywhere. I was just wondering how I could get rid of them before they try to enter my home.

From Ohio State:
Earwigs need and are very attracted to moisture. High populations, practically invisible during the day, may be present around foundations, in landscaped yards, in mulch, under boards, etc. Be sure to eliminate damp, moist conditions in crawl spaces under houses, around faucets, around air-conditioning units and along house foundations. Rain gutters and spouts should carry water away from the house foundation. Use caulking compound, putty and weather stripping around doors, windows, pipes and other entry sites, especially at the ground level. Change landscaping by creating a clean, dry border immediately around the foundation wall. Gravel or ornamental stones can make an attractive barrier against earwigs and other pest invaders.

get a bail of straw bedding out of your community puppy shop and circulate away it interior the garen the Earwigs will circulate into it because it makes for a brilliant domicile for them, in an afternoon it is going to likely be finished you could then do away with it and start up oftentimes and back as you have guessed i'm asserting that there'll be extra daily untill tere season is over.
