    If your plants are in pots they might be hiding underneath them. They will come out at night. It could be a whole load of other things too!image

  • ive set a lot of traps and will await the outcome hopefully i will find a lot drowned in oil.

    thx again and yes they are all in planters and pots as my yard is concrete

  • thanks olly ive still no earwigs in the traps but ive found some hiding on the climbing fram so yes i believe they are the culprits and have caused such damage to all the finer leaved plants as i have holly leaves untouched.
