When it comes to being a skilled labor in the animal kingdom, spiders definitely make the list. They are agile, quick in spinning their web, have a smart mode of hunting, but they aren¡¯t the prettiest of creatures out there. Not to mention, some spider species are dangerous, and a single bite from such species of the arachnid can prove to be lethal to small animals and humans. That is probably the reason why Ron from Harry Potter was not their biggest fan.
A video of a spider spinning a web INSIDE a woman¡¯s ear has been going viral on the Internet and it is enough to make all of us scared of these little creatures, if we were not before.

A hospital in China shared the footage of a spider medics found crawling up a patient's ear canal and spinning a web inside.
The elder female patient was reportedly admitted to Mianyang Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Sichuan province, after complaints of itching and 'sting pain' in her ear.
An initial scan revealed a ball of silk inside her ear canal, post which the doctors immediately carried an otoscopy. What they saw was horrifying, to say the least. A live spider had been living inside the ear of the woman, all cozy in the web it had made for itself.
Doctors said that the arachnid had been inside the woman¡¯s ear for at least a week.
Ear, nose, and throat specialist, Dr Liu Jun, said they had to paralyse the spider with chemical ear drops before attempting to remove it with tweezers. Footage of the removal process shows the spider emerging out of the web and being startled by the medic's light.
The patient¡¯s ear, fortunately, was not damaged during the removal procedure, according to the doctor. The patient said that the spider might have crawled into her ear while she was working on a vineyard.

¡°It was fortunate that the spider was small and didn¡¯t rupture her eardrum, otherwise she might have suffered hearing loss. It¡¯s not common for small insects or animals to be found inside the ear, but this wasn¡¯t an isolated case either,¡± Unilad quoted Dr Liu as saying.
Fair warning - if an insect enters your ear it is not a wise move to attempt to remove it yourself, you should seek medical attention.
