When a boy went to see his doctor complaining of constantly hearing a faint popping - he did not expect to be told he had spiders living in his ear.

The nine year old boy started hearing the popping which then ended up as earache.

I'd probably pass out if I found that out... a q-tip a day keeps the doctor away.

Very scary.

Poor kid probably suffers from earachnophobia after that.

Good thing that bug was taken out or the boy's ear could got anything worst. It's puzzling me, how did that spider got inside a tiny ear canal? Perhaps when it was little?

I watched a show on TV sometime ago were this persron was having ear problems so he went to the doctors. The doctor inspected his ear and found thier was a very small unknown type of insect living in his ear. The doctor told the patient that I have some good news and some bad news. The good news is that I got the insect out. The bad news is it LAYED EGGS. :(

Just the mere thought of some creepy crawly thing living in my ear gives me the heebie-jeebies. *shivers* Poor kid. Glad the doc got them out. He's got an interesting story to tell for the rest of his life though. :D
I'm here. What are your other two wishes?

I read this from local newspaper also. There it said, that spiders were only size of the eraser at the top of the pencil.
