I searched for "earwigs" in this forum and found an old thread titled "earwigs giving my plants problems" but happily I'm having the opposite situation. I only have 2 VFTs with about 6 traps between them at the moment, but three of the traps have captured earwigs. It is kind of amazing and odd to see their pincers protruding from the traps.

Surprising. Earwigs seem to usually escape from traps. Say nice things to your vfts for doing such a good job.😁
