Earwigs do not actually seek out human ears as a habitat; the myth that they crawl into ears is largely exaggerated. They are primarily attracted to dark, damp environments and may accidentally end up in ears if they are nearby, especially during the night when they are more active. Generally, they are more interested in decaying plant matter and are harmless to humans.
