Man sprays insecticide inside his ear to kill a cockroach (photos)

A Chinese man, after several attempts to remove a cockroach that crawled into his ear while sleeping, decided to kill the intruder by spraying bug insecticide into his ear.

The cockroach found in his ear

The 60-year-old man from Chengdu told doctors that a cockroach crawled into his ear on February 1. He could feel it wiggling around inside, so he tried to force it out with various tools. First he tried using his fingers, then he moved on to ear wax scoops, toothpicks and tweezers.

None of them proved successful, so he then tried scaring the insect by hitting his head with his hands, but that didn’t work either.

After three days the insect seemed to have advanced further into his ear, so he decided it was time for 

desperate measures. He grabbed a canned on insecticide and sprayed it into his ear, hoping to kill the intruder.

Doctors say the chemical warfare the man waged on the insect didn’t help very much, as the spray caused his ear canal to swell up, trapping the bug inside. In the end, he had to visit a doctor to have the cockroach removed, an operation that took only a few minutes. It turned out that the insect measured around one centimeter.

“Cockroaches tend to move towards warmer locations, so they will always go indoors during winter.The sticky earwax also has a mild odour, which is the cockroaches’ favourite,” Dr Ji, who conducted the operation said.

Hehehehe!
