Answer 1

interesting little creatures, I like to watch them under a magnifying glass. They are fairly harmless but can give you a nip with those pincers at the back .

It depends on three things:

the size of your ear canal

how hard you push

Answer 4

What's an ear wig? An earwig does not like going into ears. They are called earwigs because they listen to other peoples conversations.

Nope,

Answer 8

Apparently, their name is latin - 'erywigge' (not sure how you spell it), but it translates literally as ' wiggle a*se'! So its just a change of pronunciation that people think of them as earwigs - your ears are quite safe!!!
