Warning! Disgusting picture below...
I had to take drastic measures to protect my basil and my eggplant last night. The operation was very successful. I took a tuna can (unrinsed) with a little tuna in the bottom, added about a 1/2 inch of vegetable oil, and then placed it between the plant pots that I wanted to protect. When I came out this morning, this is what I found - 17 dead earwigs. I'm going to keep doing this at night until the number of casualties dwindles. Needless to say, my basil looks pretty good today!
