Insect in ear: First thing to do is smother it so it stops moving. An oily ear drop, vegetable oil or even mineral oil to fill the ear canal will work. Press on outer ear to remove air bubble. Cover with cotten plug. In 30 min gently irrigate with warm water and bulb syringe. Do NOT use alcohol, peroxide or any other toxic substance.
