Tired of creepy crawlies in your home? While common insects like ants and spiders are a nuisance, earwigs can be particularly unsettling. These harmless bugs may invade your space, especially in rural areas. If you want to get rid of them, here’s a simple hack shared by Facebook user Alicia Alexander.

She recommends filling a shallow bowl with half a cup of olive oil and placing it in your backyard or on your deck. The earwigs are attracted to the oil and become trapped. Alicia claims this method worked wonders, trapping a large number of earwigs in less than 24 hours.
