Try this: Bugs have been known to crawl inside the ears of humans, especially kids. Phils ear canal with oil like mineral oil to suffocate the insect. Then, after some time, flush with one water to see what comes out. If that doesn’t work then you need to see an ENT doc. For earwax, Feel the canal with Dawn, wait for 10-15 minutes, then flush w/ warm water until the earwax comes out. Use a water pic
