Reviewer: Old Gardener
I really don't know how or when it happenend, but I awoke one fine day to find my lush garden completely over run by Earwigs! I used a flashlight for 2 nights and hand picked them. Not even a dent did I create. That's when I found Safer brand Diatomaceous Earth at the local D&B Hardware store. I sprinkled it everywhere, on the ground, after cleaning all plant debris away. That night, I went out with a flash light and looked and looked and looked but I could not find one Earwig! What concerned me was that I couldn't find one dead one.
Well, the next morning I went out to investigate. I started to poke around here and there and when I lifted some cabbage leaves, Lo And Behold, earwigs by the tens and twentys on higher ground and hanging on for dear life! They would not walk over the Diatomaceous Earth!
I got my shop vac and went to sucking them up by the hundreds! Now, I only see one or two Earwigs here or there walking around "Dazed And Confused."
I LOVE IT!!!!!!!! GOOD STUFF!!!!!
THANK YOU!
