There was the weirdest thing on NPR a few years ago... this vet researcher guy put ear mites in his own ears (ewwwww) and they played on the radio the scritching sounds they made in the ear. Luckily they die in human ear canals (this idiot researcher gave them to himself like three times). I was totally squicked and it also made me *really* meticulous about our cat Circe who was susceptible to them. Persephone never got them but Circe got them a couple times a year. I guess some ears are yummier than others.
