Phoenix’s hot climate combined with irrigated lawns and gardens makes it a favorable environment for earwigs. They feed on decaying vegetation and insects, often hiding in moist, shaded spots. When infestations grow, earwigs can invade homes, appearing in bathrooms, kitchens, and around entry points.

Arizona Earwigs
Earwigs, frequently seen across Phoenix, are small nocturnal insects easily identified by the characteristic pincers on their abdomens. They gravitate toward cool, moist spots—such as mulched flowerbeds, shaded irrigation zones, and damp woodpiles—and may occasionally wander indoors seeking hydration. Although harmless to humans, they can feed on garden plants and become a persistent nuisance inside homes.
To reduce earwig activity around your Phoenix property, focus on lowering moisture levels: repair leaky hoses or sprinkler heads, improve drainage, and avoid overwatering. Seal cracks, gaps, and openings around foundations, doors, and windows, and clear away debris like leaf litter and stacked wood. Despite these efforts, earwigs are adept at hiding in tight, damp crevices—making full elimination challenging without professional-grade tools and expertise.
