Earwigs are primarily a nuisance. They can damage plants and invade homes in large numbers.
Contrary to urban legend, earwigs do NOT enter human ears! Their name comes from the shape of their wings which resemble a human ear. Females are excellent mothers who protect and feed their eggs and young nymphs.
