Today, I found out where the mysterious bites on my back keep coming from. It's not every day you find an earwig in your loofah. FML

Wild Nights Out
Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, when I went to the bathroom, I found an earwig in my underpants. Yes, it was alive. FML
Today, I noticed a small bite on my arm. I couldn't figure out what it came from until I saw a small insect crawling out of my bra. FML
Today, I discovered that it is possible for bugs to lay eggs in your ears. FML
Today, after a few days of getting what seemed like an odd, scattered rash every time I showered, I finally figured out the problem. It turns out I wasn't just allergic to all the different soap I tried. Apparently a family of very angry spiders have decided to make my loofah their new home. FML
Today, while I was in the shower, I noticed a short, black hair on my loofah. I ignored it and lathered up my entire body with it. When I put it back down, a roach crawled out of it. What I thought was a black hair was in fact its antenna. FML
Today, I found the same spider which I had let live yesterday hidden in my bath towel. I didn't find it until it was smeared on my face. FML
Today, I was smoking a cigarette outside and kept thinking I saw something moving out of the corner of my eye. I would look and there was nothing there, so I kept brushing it off. Finally I figured out it was an earwig crawling through my hair. FML
Today, at work, a lady came in to have her glasses fixed. When she opened her case, an earwig crawled out. Instead of trying to kill it, she just left it and watched as it crawled over my desk and behind my computer. I later found the earwig in my hair. FML
Today, I went to the doctor for what I thought was a persistent bug bite. Turns out it was a mole I'd never noticed. I had been scratching it then applying anti-itch cream for weeks. FML
Today, I was awoken by a slug crawling down my back. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Hey, if someone kept squishing you against someone's back in the shower, I bet you'd bite them too.

Earwigs don't bite, OP. Even their pinchers wont leave any sort of characteristic bug bite. Sounds like you got more than Earwigs in your loofas lurking about your house.

So, you sleep with your loofa? It's more than likely bedbugs...ck ur bed,box spring,pillows, and anything else you sit on or lay down on for long length of time ...sofa, chairs, .. Friends or families furnitures too.... Bed bugs travel and when u get them it is he'll to get rid of them but it can be done if u do it RIGHT.

I guess that means its time to get the whole place sprayed... and get a new loofa.

Earwigs have pincers on their rear end, if you found one in your washing products either there was multiple and you didnt notice (odd in itself) or more likely, its not the cause.

So everyone's gonna go home and check their loofahs for bugs now...

HOLY CRAP!!! Those things are freaking scary looking! I seriously was just having a conversation about how I would hate to see one up close! But I would've never expected it to live in a loofa..

Why not? Earwigs love damp, dark places, and they love to hide... So hiding inside a wet sponge is pretty much perfect.

Eh. They're not that bad. I'd rather be pinched by an earwig than bitten by a spider or mosquito, tbh. At least earwigs don't have venom and are generally harmless :)
