earwigs in b berries

billy_o
10 years ago

I live in northeast Ohio and we 've had a lot of rain lately. So the blueberries have earwigs hanging out in many of the clusters and seem to be feasting. Between the birds, chipmunks, squirrels now I have these.

Are these normmal pests and what's best to deter the earwigs?

Thanks for any help.
