    Bug was buzzing around my ear I swatted at it and it went right in my ear.
    Rinsed my ear several times with warm water, it stopped fluttering, but I did not see the bug come out, now what?
    Wait n see?

    I have had this happen before but I saw the bug and knew it was out

    I would put some baby or olive oil in there to do some rinses. if it doesn't come out, it will help it wax over.

    Don't try to pick it out either. My doctor says nothing smaller than your elbow should go in your ear! Rinsing is best and the oil idea is good too.

    Little know fact: baby oil is not actually made from babies.

    Another known fact. Infants do not have as much fun in infancy as adults do in adultery.

    Right where I want to be.
    Hey, Popeye was my idol when I was little.
    I never did like spinach though. Or Olive Oil.
    I like olive oil now. Use it to cook my eggs, and put it in bread dough sometimes.
    HDR, have you tried a vacuum? Ok, bad idea, but who knows, right?

    You wouldn't use a vacuum, you need to blow air in from the other ear.

    Have you tried the deep breath, plug nose, close mouth and blow method to pop it out?

    They have a actual ear vacuum that's made for swimmers ear. Don't know if you can find that.
