A 16-year-old girl in Taiwan had more than 30 ants in her ears because of her fancy for snacks.

Recently her ears started itching and when her family members said they had seen ants climbing out of her ears she rushed to see a doctor.

The doctor found that there were about six ants in the girl's left ear, and more than 20 in her right ear.

Fortunately the ants had not caused any harm to the girl's eardrum.

The girl said she always likes eating snacks and clearing her ears when lying in bed.
