Generally, the best way to get rid of ground beetles, are to remove and decaying wood inside of your basement, try to keep lights off, as they like lighting, use toads or birds (You likely don't want them in your basement either...), or use insecticides, though safer and more reliable ones are generally only permitted use by licensed contractors.

Ground beetles are often found in basements because they like the dampness. To get rid of them, you can purchase cedar oil and spray them with it.
