Insecticides tested for toxicity to earwigs in lab, semi-field and orchard scale experiments.

Two life stages of earwigs; nymphs and adult males and females tested.

Abamectin and chlorantraniliprole were considered earwig safe.

Spinosad, spiridoclofen, thiacloprid and methoxyfenozide reduced growth of earwig nymphs.

Chlorpyrifos, thiacloprid and flonicamid reduced earwig foraging in trees at night.
