Something is doing the exact same thing to mine...just noticed this morning...
Sorry, I don't have an answer for you, but I hope someone else does.
Well, I got the advice from my neighbor. I am an organic gardner. So she told me to put either some marigold plants in those garden beds. Cause they can't seem to stand the smell of marigold. Another spectrum would be using garlic gloves. Buy a whole bunch of garlic cloves in the store. Then peel them leave the outer shell on them. Dig them nearby every plant, and a few in your veggie bed , as well as containers, etc. Every where you have plants. It will help keep the bugs out.
Good luck . Another non chemical use would be
use some Water solution with some dish soap and a can of beer. Mix the solution together. Pour it arround the plants. That too should help prevent from bugs . Good luck. ears of farming and gardnening experience.
I have had problems with earwigs in previous years. They are hard to spot and even harder to get rid of.
