Except in the South, ear-wigs are rare in the United States, and not injurious. In parts of Europe and in sub-tropical and tropical countries they are sometimes abundant and frequently annoying, eating at night into flowers in which they hide during the day. In vine- and flower-covered houses or arbors they are sometimes a nuisance, and their long, slender form and nocturnal habits have given rise to the unfounded belief that they crawl into the ears of sleepers and kill them.
