As people from tropical 3rd world country, cockroaches have also gotten into my ears when i sleep. I wake up from my sleep after feeling the weird tingling sensation inside my ear and immediately crushed the cockroaches when it comes out after i pouring eucalyptus oil into my ear. For now, I can't do nothing about environment around me (aside from keep it clean) but i sure can preventing this from happening again by equipping earmuffs before take a nap. In short, take care of your ears folks! The chance of this happening is low but never zero
I’ve had a roach in my ear, it’s the most terrifying thing to experience since you don’t want the damn thing laying eggs in your ear. I sometimes think abt it and I don’t think I’ll be the same again
I'm pretty sure that could give you PTSD- I know a guy who had a roach in his ear from sleeping on an air mattress on the floor and personally I don't think I could sleep over (or frankly in general) peacefully again. I know he wasn't the same after it happened.
Finally people feel my fear. I watched this court show between this lady and her landlord when I was little, she had a bandage over her ear. Naturally, I was intrigued and watched the thing. She had complained to her landlord multiple times abt the roach infestation, but the landlord never did anything. One night lo and behold, a roach did crawl in her ear and had to be surgically removed. She won the suit needless to say.
I've lived in an apartment that had roaches. Luckily they stayed in the kitchen, I never found them in the bedroom but his is terrifying. Glad I never thought of this possibility.
No, I don't think it was that kind of beetle. I was pretty lucky in that it seemed to want out itself, so after I noticed it and accidentally scared it in further, I was able to wait until it had crawled out enough that I could grab it.
Happened to me when I was a child, woke up from sleep crying from pain. My mom checked my ear and it was bleeding because of the ant. I turned out fine, but that was very painful
here's a story for everyone. years ago my mom noticed her eye was itchy. it got worse over a couple days and eventually there was a small lump under her eyelid, so she went to the hospital. they found an abnormality in her eye socket with some scans, so they sent her to Wills Eye Hospital to have an eye surgeon investigate. he went in and took out the issue. the issue was a ladybug shell. not the whole beetle, just the shell of a ladybug. somehow the shell of a ladybug made it under her eyelid. my mom asked him does this happen to people regularly, and he said he'd been in the field for decades and that was the first time he had ever seen or even heard about anything like that happen to someone.
I've had a spider in my ear. I was able to see part of it using one of those little ear cameras they sell on Amazon. It left on its own before I tried to do anything about it. I could feel that the sensation of it being in there was gone, couldn't see it there anymore, and could see my eardrum was fine. I'm glad I used an ear wash spray bottle to clean anyway though because it washed out what looked like eggs.
Abnormally calm about having a spider in your ear... I would've gone to a ear doctor if I had one there as a risk of having small creatures inside a sensitive place like that is too high.
I didn't know it was laying eggs until I washed them out, at which point everything was out so I was fine. I figured if I'd missed anything it would cause a bunch of irritation inside my ear and I'd go see the doctor.
My wife had a small spider decide her ear canal would make a cosy home. I remember seeing it on the scope/camera when she finally visited the doctor with me. It was literally the last thing any of us expected. I remember just seeing legs at the front, chilling out looking like it would sitting in a normal borrow/web. The doc ended up flushing it out with oil, they didn't want to risk prodding at it with tweezers just in case it bit & inflamed the ear canal.
When i was a wee child, my dad said that earwigs crawl into your ear if you sleep on the floor. As we slept over at my aunts house. On the floor. So yea, pulled my first all nighter at age 8.
I had a cockroach fly into my ear at 3 am once. The MOST horrifying experience ever. I drowned it in olive oil until I could get to a doctor to pull it out. -500000/10
@@Serena-ke9mp I think the oil’s main effectiveness was in drowning the roach so that it stopped moving. It moving around in there was the single most panic inducing sensation I have ever felt. Definitely don’t try to use a q-tip like this lady did, but if you have another human to help you (I did not), I guess an attempt could be made at extracting with tweezers? The problem is that they have barbed limbs that make it much easier for them to crawl in than out. Also probably don’t sleep with the window open if you live in a place where the cockroaches can fly. 😅
Yes, it IS. When I was younger, after watching an episode of Zaboomafoo titled "Itchy Scratchy", about things that make you itch and how different animals go about scratching their itches, like bears rubbing their backs against trees, dogs & cats using their hind legs and claws, etc. It was a fun and educational show, but by the end of the 30 minutes, I was itching so bad, I had to take a slower because of severity of how itchy I wasfrom nothing more than the power of suggestion…
Several years ago I lived in a house that had such a severe bedbug problem that it just absolutely demolished my mental health to the point where even today images of bedbugs and that specific scent of smashed ones trigger me very badly. I actually developed delusional parasitosis during that ordeal because my mind kept screaming at me that they're starting to crawl into more intimate regions and starting to crawl inside of me. Until now I was completely ashamed to tell anyone I had delusional parasitosis, but this video kinda made it feel justified in a way due to these types of incidents actually happening, albeit rarely.
I'm physically cringing throughout this video. Here in Houston we have those large tree roaches that fly. I've had a few land on me. They're monsters. And he mentions Houston as the first city that has common bug in ear issues.
That's all I needed to hear. Another reason why I don't like the south. The heat and humidity and the creepy crawly mondrosities. You couldn't pay me enough money to ever go in those territories.
When I was a toddler, I often slept with my great grandparents and every time, my great grandmother puts a clove of garlic in my ear when I fall asleep and takes it out before I woke up. We didn't know the reason behind this but after watching this, it's probably one of the reasons why.
Me, my youngest, and millions of people with eczema, have to apply lotion each night. It has never caused me an increase to those bugs liking us, thankfully. Also, we've only had 2 times since 2016 where we've seen a roach. But I can tell you one thing about how it feels when a swarm of japanese beetles take over your front yard and house, cotton balls in your ears, keep them fresh and dry. Had one get stuck in my right ear. Flushing is recommended which can be done with a bit of olive oil and some warm salt water and an infant tylenol medicine dropper. If it does not come out with flushing, please visit your local Urgent Care or ER. These beetles crawl everywhere, and some I noticed would have a greenish residue on them. Some had a yellowish pollen residue, so they too can introduce not just bacteria, but also mold. I was lucky only 1 got in, with the swarm we had. They made the house and the air outside stink so bad!
Why did not a single doctor attempt a simple LAVAGE, also known as water irrigation, on her ear???? I used to have extremely bad wax buildup and would take an old waterpik machine and blast out tons of stuff like magic on the pulse setting. It was amazing and simple.
I got a moth in my ear one time. It was flying around the porch light and flew in as I passed on the way outside. It was so awful, I could hear the thing trying to flap its wings against my eardrum. I had to have it flushed out at the hospital. The resulting bill was a second horror all on its own.
I don't think I would ever recover from something like this. Having to go through two different "extractions?" That's just cruel and unusual punishment. For now, I gotta go clean my ears. THANKS BREW! lol
Ive had a baby spider in my ear when i was a kid. It was luckily at the enterance of my ear canal so i was able to scoop it out. However, im terrified of spiders and was a child, so i flicked it on the ground and smashed it repeatedly. Then i cried. It was an awful experience
@RedFoxSkull idk about you, but I remember it started when I was around 4 and woke up to a daddy long leg crawling across my chest. And the spider in the ear was also awful cause my mom was sitting above me (I was sitting on the floor between her legs. She was sitting in a chair) and she thought I was playing so she was laughing until I turned around with my face red and wet from tears.
I have been labeled as drug seeking and almost died 3 times in my life (gallbladder ruptured and took days to get diagnosed. Mitral vale went bad and took 8 years to get a doctor to listen to me. Surgeon who replaced it said he had never seen a valve that bad even in autopsy. Most recently the replacement mitral valve failed. Symptoms started 2.5yrs after I got it but was not diagnosed as failure until almost 6 years after the first replacement. I was days away from death and got turfed out of 2 hospitals 14 times over a month. 5 of those times were in 48 hours. Finally the 3rd hospital admitted me after my daughter had a fit when they tried to dismiss me as being constipated. The symptoms I came in with were extreme fluid retention and the inability to exhale whenever I stood up. As soon as I was admitted and the cardiac team notified they ordered an echo and informed me for the 2nd time I needed emergency open heart surgery. This is cut as short as I can tell it. If I went into full detail it is much worse the way I’ve been treated as a woman by medical professionals. At least the label of drug seeker has been removed from my record.
There is this similar story in philippines. They were students having study group and one kid felt stinging pain in her ear and when they look at it . There it is a roach . The father put baby oil on her ear to drown it and they pull it out with a tweezers. Though i dont really recall if they follow up to the doctor or a clinic. This happened i think last year. There's footage of it all over the internet too.
I had ants trying to get into my ear once while sleeping out in the county. Next day I flooded each and every ant colony in a mile radius. Felt good, never been the same tho.
It's this reason I'm not able to sleep until morning, because I have this little fear that something like that could get stuck in your ear, and it would give me such a panic attack if you ask me.
i dont live in south florida specifically, but i do live in florida, and ive had such a fear of this for so long that i just wear headphones to sleep now. if i need an alarm i just keep my phone next to my bed and hope the volume and vibration are strong enough to wake me even though i havent seen a roach in my house in years. praying our new house doesnt have an infestation like the people in the vid, didnt see anything when we went to look at it so........
I lived in New Orleans for 8 years and always had roaches -- even after repeated fogging. They went from apartment to apartment. I still to this day wear earplugs even after moving away.
This was almost too uncomfortable to listen to! I audibly wretched and screamed visualizing what Katie went through! I felt that in my ears and I am not okay with it lol
So glad I go to bed listening to music, I sleep with headphones because I don't really enjoy the silence. I do have days I prefer that tho, to which I use earplugs.
i had a ear bug experience once. it was completely random. we didnt have bugs at home but one day my ear was really itchy and i woke up from a nap and something black fell out of my ear and i felt a lot of wiggling. quickly, what i think was a fly came out of my ear and that was it. i was paranoid for weeks. other than that the only other thing that got in my ear is slag while welding upside down. most painful burn ever.
Well, there's another "Sleep well folks!!!" tale, what a nightmare situation to go through, made worse by incompetence from the first set of doctors who didn't think to actually check it was a whole insect in there......... :S
I once had a bug land in my ear during recess when I was a kid, it was weirdly bright blue as I remember it. I felt it moving and buzzing in my ear, I used my finger to pull it out and thankfully managed to do so without pushing it in further. I can’t remember if it came out alive or squished, I only remember the bright blue shell of the tiny bug. I’ve had “something-is-in-my-ear” anxiety since then, but I thankfully haven’t encountered any other ear-loving bug in almost two decades. I’m hoping the trend continues
If I had a cockroach problem in my home, I would have placed potted lavender and mint plants in every room and near every window and door. I would also place sliced or crushed raw garlic on paper napkins on floors and on top of high cabinets and wardrobes (because cockroaches have wings and can fly).
well, that is a good reason why everyone should at least clean their room once or twice in a month or twice in a year; it depends on the person I guess.
fun fact: possums love to eat insects, so if you're living in a house with decently mature trees, keep your eyes peeled for possums to take up residence and once they do, make sure they're safe and comfortable and they'll return the favor. i've got a multigenerational family of possums living in my backyard and they put a stop to the nightly parade of huge american cockroaches that would try to take over my bedroom at night. it's oddly cute watching the juvenile possums chase down and gobble up the giant roaches...
As a child, my mom used to tell me stories like this where a somekind of maggot burrows deep into his head through his ear all while he slept on the floor. A few weeks down the line when he was scratching his head it kept on feeling more and more itchy finally he pulls onto his hair and the whole upper half of skull comes off!! 😨And to his horror he finds hundreds of maggots feeding onto his brain from the inside!! 😱I got so scared it knocked me out immediately😅 which ig was the whole point of this bedtime story.
I'm 51yrs old male, military veteran, father, and creeped totally the f out at just the thought of such a thing!!! Nightmare fuel, Brew... Nightmare fuel...
I had the same case like her a few years ago. What I do is I tilted my head and immediately slapped gently at the opposite ear while standing upright. And the cockrach fell out a few minutes later.
My sister had a roach problem in her ear at a early age, I don't remember the details nor did I ask her about the situation but all I know is I have trama from that experience as well even though I myself didn't go through that. To this day I always have to cover my ears everytime I sleep with headphones or my sheets.
Getting a small moth stuck in my ear was the worst feeling ever, hearing a sound from inside your head is crazy. I was panicking but my Mum shined a light at my ear and the moth eventually wriggled towards the light and got out, felt so weird/kinda tickly as it came out.
Not once, but twice I've woken up with a live mosquito in my ear. On top of the horrible feeling of the insect moving inside your head, there's the noise that is just maddening. It is way louder than anything else and I went in a frenzy the 1st time. I did loads of stuff that I shouldn't have (because I could've gone deaf) but in the end I tossed a bit of alcohol and it died with a loud screech. Second time I already knew how to kill it. I don't recommend it though. Try the oil thing first, please. Sleeping with earplugs from now on. 🤢
I had a jumping spider in my ear once, thankfully it crawled out shortly after I woke up, on to my finger when I went to scratch that ear. I do love jumping spiders but that was a scary experience.
Somehow I managed to dodge this when I lived in a house with a significant palmetto bug problem. Then again, I was in constant war with them, and extremely paranoid when they took flight. (Because being a ~2 inch roach wasn't bad enough. They also fly, poorly.) Unfortunately, I did not become aware of diatomaceous earth until a different but similar problem in a different house.
For some reason, bugs tend to leave my house. I welcome spiders. Have had ants come in 3 times, each time I suggested that they weren’t safe in the house. No pesticides, just nicely told them to go away.
Palmetto bugs, officially known as the Florida woods cockroach, are not capable of flight. You’re probably referring to the American cockroach, which is able to fly, and is often mistaken for a true palmetto bug. We even have them in Arizona, and I recall encountering them in high school in Phoenix, as well as in the bathtub of my apartment in Tucson during undergrad.
Cotton swabs are terrible for ears since they compress ear wax to the drum. Ear picks are great because it’s able to grab hold and gently drag out the wax without pushing it further in.
Not nearly as severe, but one morning a few years back I woke up with an itch in my ear. I stuck my pinky finger inside to scratch the itch, and wound up pulling out a live ladybug! Scared the hell out of me
Had a spider get in my ear while I was sleeping. Worst way to wake up. My first instinct was to flush with water and I was able to get it out. Bought an ear irrigation kit and a pen camera shortly after that.
A guy I worked with had a bee fly directly into his ear while on a riding mower. It couldn’t get out so it started burrowing deeper. I’ve never heard a grown man scream like that before.
I had to have an earwig removed from my ear (don't sleep outside without a tent or sleeping bag lol) but thankfully it was removed within less than 2hrs after I got to the hospital in one piece! The ent doctor said it was only the 2nd live insect in an ear that he'd removed in over 30 years in the job, but after watching this I'm glad it was alive 😅 it did pinch my ear up and perforated my eardrum a couple of times but I just had to use ear drops for a week.
I get lots of wax so regularly use hydrogen peroxide so that would likely be my first reaction but definitely a visit to the doctor in case it layed eggs, which was my first thought seeing this, spider my biggest fear
I had something dig into my ear in the middle of the night once. I could hear its legs scratching against my ear drum. Ive never flown out of bed so quickly.

I couldn't "watch" this. I just listened to it. Too, too, too many bugs. 😨
There is this similar story in philippines. They were students having study group and one kid felt stinging pain in her ear and when they look at it . There it is a roach . The father put baby oil on her ear to drown it and they pull it out with a tweezers. Though i dont really recall if they follow up to the doctor or a clinic. This happened i think last year. There's footage of it all over the internet too.
Man Brew! Stop freaking me out and entertaining me at the same time but don't stop but stop😂
You know what? Paranoia of finding a bug in your ear is 100% understandable. Especially so soon after it happens the first time.
This is why I always directly go to an ENT, Dermatologist, etc instead of a regular doctor.
This has to be one of my worst fears. Not just having a roach crawl into my ear, any bug will do.
I had ants trying to get into my ear once while sleeping out in the county.
Next day I flooded each and every ant colony in a mile radius.
Felt good, never been the same tho.
Oh this whole episode is the WORST nightmare fuel! Why did I watch this? I'm gonna go deep clean EVERYTHING now.
Ive had a fly in my ear terrifying as F
“Would you stay in a room filled with cockroaches for a week”
Me: Nah
“For a 100 million dollars”
Me: I’m gonna make friends with everyone of them
I wouldn't even last for 1 minute. 1 minute in there is enough to give me nightmares every night.
This is part of why I often sleep with earplugs. Less likely to have something crawl in.
Just a note, I'm SO HAPPY you guys went back to the old format. This is a lot better. Hated those animations lol
I live in South Florida and this is a top fear of mine. Have heard too many horror stories.
It's this reason I'm not able to sleep until morning, because I have this little fear that something like that could get stuck in your ear, and it would give me such a panic attack if you ask me.
i dont live in south florida specifically, but i do live in florida, and ive had such a fear of this for so long that i just wear headphones to sleep now. if i need an alarm i just keep my phone next to my bed and hope the volume and vibration are strong enough to wake me
even though i havent seen a roach in my house in years. praying our new house doesnt have an infestation like the people in the vid, didnt see anything when we went to look at it so........
I lived in New Orleans for 8 years and always had roaches -- even after repeated fogging. They went from apartment to apartment. I still to this day wear earplugs even after moving away.
Well, this has been sufficiently horrifying. Thanks Brew and crew!
This was almost too uncomfortable to listen to! I audibly wretched and screamed visualizing what Katie went through! I felt that in my ears and I am not okay with it lol
Even tho they got the roach out, there was 10 minutes left from the Brew video
And this kind of thing is why I have ALWAYS slept with a blanket over my head!
So glad I go to bed listening to music, I sleep with headphones because I don't really enjoy the silence. I do have days I prefer that tho, to which I use earplugs.
i had a ear bug experience once. it was completely random. we didnt have bugs at home but one day my ear was really itchy and i woke up from a nap and something black fell out of my ear and i felt a lot of wiggling. quickly, what i think was a fly came out of my ear and that was it. i was paranoid for weeks. other than that the only other thing that got in my ear is slag while welding upside down. most painful burn ever.
This happened to my mom once it’s was a centipede and she was a wake so she was able to pull it out herself
Holy sht 😳 glad she's alright
Hold a light close to your ear and be really still. Most bug types will head for light.
Why didn’t the first doctor flush Katie’s ear?
"...then there's my personal favorite, simulator mode." As a war thunder player, I could not concentrate for the rest of the video.
Ah, I remember this. Dreadful.
Thanks a lot, Brew! Now I have a new really bad phobia!!!
Hmmm, warm, humid places... Im screwed
😂
I had a fly get into my ear.
Was kinda loud and tickled.
Flushed it with water.
Uneventful removal.
I love how grill took the words out of our mouths with the new fear unlocked comment
After watching this, I’m definitely moving the jar of sweets away from my bedside cabinet!! Great video 👍🏼
Ear wigs..... 😮 😢 Centipedes!!!!! Bed bugs!!! Just 🔥...lots and lots of 🔥 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Never had a video give me that creepy crawly shiver feeling so much in my life.... but much like a major accident, I just couldn't look away.😂
I'd sue the property owner.
Valid
Thank you for reminding me it’s time to get my quarterly pest control. I love my pest control guy.
Well, there's another "Sleep well folks!!!" tale, what a nightmare situation to go through, made worse by incompetence from the first set of doctors who didn't think to actually check it was a whole insect in there......... :S
This is like one of my worst nightmares. Here in Florida, these giant roaches are more common and I'm terrified of them.
Great idea to watch this video while I'm laying in bed & about to go to sleep.
First thing that came to my mind after watching this, was "KHAAAAAAANNNNNNNN!!!!!!"
I once had a bug land in my ear during recess when I was a kid, it was weirdly bright blue as I remember it. I felt it moving and buzzing in my ear, I used my finger to pull it out and thankfully managed to do so without pushing it in further. I can’t remember if it came out alive or squished, I only remember the bright blue shell of the tiny bug. I’ve had “something-is-in-my-ear” anxiety since then, but I thankfully haven’t encountered any other ear-loving bug in almost two decades. I’m hoping the trend continues
If I had a cockroach problem in my home, I would have placed potted lavender and mint plants in every room and near every window and door. I would also place sliced or crushed raw garlic on paper napkins on floors and on top of high cabinets and wardrobes (because cockroaches have wings and can fly).
Those Osage oranges work good for roaches too. But not as available everywhere or all the time. Thanks for the info
I had a brown recluse get into my ear a few years ago and I still sleep with earplugs in to this day.
well, that is a good reason why everyone should at least clean their room once or twice in a month or twice in a year; it depends on the person I guess.
0:17 "an EARrie sensation"
what i literally said to myself 😭😭
I have frowned this entire video. This whole thing is so unsettling.
I’m here at the beginning of the journey of this video being viral
Who else subconsciously covered their ears partially while watching this
Eating borscht and watching this with crawling skin... why am I like this
Ok def can't watch this one. I have a constant fear there is bugs living inside my ear.
Don't worry, a lot of things live in your ear already!
fun fact: possums love to eat insects, so if you're living in a house with decently mature trees, keep your eyes peeled for possums to take up residence and once they do, make sure they're safe and comfortable and they'll return the favor. i've got a multigenerational family of possums living in my backyard and they put a stop to the nightly parade of huge american cockroaches that would try to take over my bedroom at night. it's oddly cute watching the juvenile possums chase down and gobble up the giant roaches...
As a child, my mom used to tell me stories like this where a somekind of maggot burrows deep into his head through his ear all while he slept on the floor. A few weeks down the line when he was scratching his head it kept on feeling more and more itchy finally he pulls onto his hair and the whole upper half of skull comes off!! 😨And to his horror he finds hundreds of maggots feeding onto his brain from the inside!! 😱I got so scared it knocked me out immediately😅 which ig was the whole point of this bedtime story.
I'm 51yrs old male, military veteran, father, and creeped totally the f out at just the thought of such a thing!!! Nightmare fuel, Brew... Nightmare fuel...
All of people's experience here making cockroach flies onto my head on my cosplay day and stay for almost a minute becomes tiny sh*t in seconds.
I had the same case like her a few years ago. What I do is I tilted my head and immediately slapped gently at the opposite ear while standing upright. And the cockrach fell out a few minutes later.
My sister had a roach problem in her ear at a early age, I don't remember the details nor did I ask her about the situation but all I know is I have trama from that experience as well even though I myself didn't go through that. To this day I always have to cover my ears everytime I sleep with headphones or my sheets.
Getting a small moth stuck in my ear was the worst feeling ever, hearing a sound from inside your head is crazy. I was panicking but my Mum shined a light at my ear and the moth eventually wriggled towards the light and got out, felt so weird/kinda tickly as it came out.
Not once, but twice I've woken up with a live mosquito in my ear. On top of the horrible feeling of the insect moving inside your head, there's the noise that is just maddening. It is way louder than anything else and I went in a frenzy the 1st time. I did loads of stuff that I shouldn't have (because I could've gone deaf) but in the end I tossed a bit of alcohol and it died with a loud screech. Second time I already knew how to kill it. I don't recommend it though. Try the oil thing first, please. Sleeping with earplugs from now on. 🤢
WHAT
Congrats, you're first.
👏👏
Too real
"Ah.. Yeah! There seems to be a roach in this woman's ear." x4
I love your videos man perfect timing to I was bored asf
I had a jumping spider in my ear once, thankfully it crawled out shortly after I woke up, on to my finger when I went to scratch that ear. I do love jumping spiders but that was a scary experience.
Somehow I managed to dodge this when I lived in a house with a significant palmetto bug problem. Then again, I was in constant war with them, and extremely paranoid when they took flight. (Because being a ~2 inch roach wasn't bad enough. They also fly, poorly.) Unfortunately, I did not become aware of diatomaceous earth until a different but similar problem in a different house.
For some reason, bugs tend to leave my house. I welcome spiders. Have had ants come in 3 times, each time I suggested that they weren’t safe in the house. No pesticides, just nicely told them to go away.
Palmetto bugs, officially known as the Florida woods cockroach, are not capable of flight. You’re probably referring to the American cockroach, which is able to fly, and is often mistaken for a true palmetto bug. We even have them in Arizona, and I recall encountering them in high school in Phoenix, as well as in the bathtub of my apartment in Tucson during undergrad.
18:10 "just like you" is crazy
This... Is terrifying! I think I should stop eating in my bed
SCP-150
Burrows into its host
Burrows into the host's brain
turns the host into a bug
15:58 If the roach laid eggs, then there would have been an ootheca in her ear.
Does anyone else think of "Star Trek 2 The Wrath of KHAN" when they hear this story?
Cotton swabs are terrible for ears since they compress ear wax to the drum.
Ear picks are great because it’s able to grab hold and gently drag out the wax without pushing it further in.
Not nearly as severe, but one morning a few years back I woke up with an itch in my ear. I stuck my pinky finger inside to scratch the itch, and wound up pulling out a live ladybug! Scared the hell out of me
we must cower in fear when brew posts a new video
Had a spider get in my ear while I was sleeping. Worst way to wake up. My first instinct was to flush with water and I was able to get it out. Bought an ear irrigation kit and a pen camera shortly after that.
A guy I worked with had a bee fly directly into his ear while on a riding mower. It couldn’t get out so it started burrowing deeper. I’ve never heard a grown man scream like that before.
I had to have an earwig removed from my ear (don't sleep outside without a tent or sleeping bag lol) but thankfully it was removed within less than 2hrs after I got to the hospital in one piece! The ent doctor said it was only the 2nd live insect in an ear that he'd removed in over 30 years in the job, but after watching this I'm glad it was alive 😅 it did pinch my ear up and perforated my eardrum a couple of times but I just had to use ear drops for a week.
I get lots of wax so regularly use hydrogen peroxide so that would likely be my first reaction but definitely a visit to the doctor in case it layed eggs, which was my first thought seeing this, spider my biggest fear
I had something dig into my ear in the middle of the night once. I could hear its legs scratching against my ear drum. Ive never flown out of bed so quickly.
