Hoi Benoit,

The first thing I can tell you is that the flies belong to the family Tachinidae!
Members of this family are known parasites from all kinds of families of insects, like for example Lepidoptera and Hemiptera.
Maybe it is a parasite on the earwig, but that is hard to tell!
It can be a coincidence that you have found it in this position.
Greetings!
