Hi folks Working through my IPM data for the last year, it occurs to me that some species of insect, whilst not particularly damaging to pests, are being eaten by other pest species and that these are contributing to the pest numbers Is this something we should be considering? Are there pest species in this context that we should be more wary of Regards from North West London (furlough) Adie Doyle

Both are invaders, and the earwig suggests high moisture somewhere...perhaps mulch or leaf litter right up against the building or water seeping into the basement.
