Disturbing Video Shows Nasty Spider Living In Woman’s Ear
If you are easily grossed out, you might not want to see this. A disturbing video shows nasty spider living in woman’s ear. Can you even imagine?
This was a current case released by the New England Journal Of Medicine. Back in April, a woman from Taiwan woke up one morning and felt something rustling in her ear. She tried over the next few days to ignore the problem, but the noises wouldn’t stop. Because of the constant rustling in her ears, she suffered insomnia. After four days, she finally went to a clinic, where a doctor suspected an insect had made its way into her ear canal.
She was seen by doctor, Tengchin Wang, who is the director of the otolaryngology department at Show Chwan Memorial Hospital in Taiwan. He used a scope to look into her ear canal and discovered a spider was living in her ear. Then he took a picture of it and showed it to her. What he saw was an arachnid, not an insect — and its exoskeleton. The spider had shed it’s exoskeleton inside of her ear canal as well as made it’s home inside there. A suction was used to remove the spider.

It is not uncommon for insects to crawl into ears. Research suggests that insects make up 14 to 18 percent of all foreign bodies found in ear canals. Anyone who thinks a bug might have made its way into their ear should see an ear, nose and throat specialist, or if that’s not possible, their general practitioner. The worst thing you can do is start sticking something like a cotton swab into the ear or trying to flush out a foreign object with drops because doing so can puncture the eardrum.
Removing an insect or even an arachnid from an ear canal is fairly easy. Usually a severe injury from a bug is from an outer ear infection. The best thing to do is not to freak out. Sure.
Here Is The Most Roach-Infested City In Florida
When it comes to roaches, I like calling them Palmetto bugs. Sounds classier right? If you live in Florida you have seen many roaches, but what city is the most infested? I live in St. Petersburg and it did not make this list. “Here is the most roach-infested city in Florida.” Can you guess the city? You will see below.
If you have roaches does it mean your home is dirty?
According to the National Pesticide Information Center, “Finding roaches is not a sign that your house is dirty. Even if you clean regularly and maintain a tidy home, cockroaches can usually find food and water without much trouble. This allows them to thrive in many environments.”
Roaches have been on this earth for over 200 years. The common cockroach can survive forces up to 900 times greater than its own body weight. Roaches can also squeeze through openings. On top of all of this their reproduction abilities, are very quick. These are all the reasons roaches are hard to eliminate. Roach infestations are most common in summer months because they thrive in hot temperatures!
Funny Roach story
I once went to a guy’s house and woke up to a roach in my wig. I felt so dirty! He apologized but at that point, I was already disgusted. His house was actually not dirty, so I don’t know why there was a roach in my wig.
Have you ever been in a situation like this? Is a person having roaches in their home a deal breaker? I want to hear your stories! Feel free to email me at Babs@wild941.com. As you read above, someone having roaches in their home doesn’t necessarily mean their house is dirty.
