DEAR WTB,
I HAVE SEEN SILVERFISH ALL MY LIFE AND HAVE BEEN TERRIFIED OF THEM. I WAS TOLD BY MY
BIG SISTER THAT SILVERFISH WILL TRY TO BURROW INSIDE OF YOUR EARS. IT THAT TRUE?
WILL THEY HARM PEOPLE IN ANYWAY?

Dear Silverchicken,
I think your sister was pulling your leg. Earwigs, on the other hand, have a reputation for seeking
refuge in ears, hence their name. Earwigs will not burrow or do any permanent damage, they are just
seeking shelter. No need to fear silverfish or earwigs.
