With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Hop-Garden Earwig sighting in Helsinki on a given day, based on 42 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 138th most-seen of the 838 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.
October
In that month about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Hop-Garden Earwig in Helsinki on a given day, against under 5% in November to May, the lowest months.
Between 6 and 9 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Hop-Garden Earwig sightings with a recorded time, and about half of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is seen both by day and at night.
Among the best
Of the 9 cities where we can rate Hop-Garden Earwig sightings, Helsinki ranks 2nd at about 10%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Warsaw (Poland, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Hop-Garden Earwig is recorded against all the insects logged in Helsinki (42 verified sightings), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
