They've got an extra, just in case one breaks. They often do break.

Myth. People thought they crawled into peoples ears at night and did weird things to their brains, but its never been substantiated ever.

And I mean EVER. No reports of Dermaptera in peoples ears.

They may not crawl around in your ears, but if you catch one and hold onto it, it pinches you! MEAN, smelly creatures, I tell you!

That WAS a truly inspired reply, I agree.  I meant to answer it with a "Yes" last night but forgot!

I call meta-myth!  I bet that the interpretation of the name "earwig" as having had to do with ears is a back formation from the word which is probably from an entirely different root altogether!  Also, I've never met anyone who believed that earwigs crawl into your brain through your ears (discounting impressionable children lied to by adults who knew better.)

They're often found in ears of corn. I assumed that's where the name came from...

Actually I had a friend who legitimately had an earwig crawl in his ear when he was asleep. He complained of really bad ear pains and when he went to the doctor there WAS one in his ear.

Just a coincidence I know, but still.

HE IS THE PROOF lol

I think when that happens, one probably ought to be more concerned with the sanitary conditions of one's dwelling than with specifics about where the earwigs are crawling. :lol:

My husband once got a gnat in his ear and it had to be flushed out at the doctor's office.
