Could be an insect bite.
No, you cannot get nits in your ears. Nits are the eggs of head lice, which typically attach to hair strands on the scalp. The ear canal does not provide the necessary environment for nits to survive or attach. Instead, if you experience itching or irritation in your ears, it may be due to other causes like earwax buildup or infections.
Itching ears can be caused by dry skin, allergies, infections, or earwax buildup. To relieve itching, you can use over-the-counter ear drops, warm olive oil, or consult a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and treatment. Avoid inserting objects into your ears as this can worsen the condition.

The skin on the ears is generally thinner than that on the scalp. The scalp has a thicker dermis and more layers of skin due to its hair follicles and protective functions. In contrast, the skin on the ears is more delicate and has fewer layers, making it more susceptible to injury and environmental factors. Thus, while both areas have unique characteristics, the ears have thinner skin overall.
To determine if lice are present on your scalp, look for symptoms such as persistent itching, which is often caused by an allergic reaction to lice bites. You may also notice small white or yellowish eggs (nits) attached to the hair shafts close to the scalp. Additionally, you can check for adult lice by parting your hair in sections and examining the scalp and hair closely, particularly behind the ears and at the nape of the neck. If you suspect an infestation, it's best to consult a healthcare professional for confirmation and treatment options.
An old wives' tale about ears itching is often associated with someone talking about you behind your back. However, there is no scientific evidence to support this belief. Ears can itch for various reasons, such as dry skin, allergies, or irritation.
