Spread the seeds out in the sun and watch them run away. I had a lot of them in my mailbox and sprinkled a layer of baking soda and no more earwigs. They walk in the baking soda, clean themselves, and blow up because they can't burb. Safe for kids, cats, and dogs.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7157796120640152479.post-53917682334989276512010-07-23T19:57:54.985-07:002010-07-23T19:57:54.985-07:00That's a lot of kale seeds.

Alternatively, I you could spread the seed heads out on a tarp and let the earwigs scurry away to a dark place conviniently located nearby??<br /><br />My kids were playing with a toy barn until I opened the doors to discover it was earwig palace. They don't play with it anymore.Ottawa Gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14486499450332482461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7157796120640152479.post-38089828442638213042010-07-23T16:42:00.424-07:002010-07-23T16:42:00.424-07:00Ah, I was just trying to convince Eldest Child to ...Ah, I was just trying to convince Eldest Child to help me figure out how to get the earwigs out of the large garbage bag of saved kale seeds. Any ideas?<br /><br />On the plus side, they're easy to sprout in the garden!Stefaneenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08422241601075022500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7157796120640152479.post-84398165064983450672010-07-23T05:18:57.224-07:002010-07-23T05:18:57.224-07:00I expect myself to remember way too many times and...I expect myself to remember way too many times and it just doesn't happen.
