There is no evidence that they transmit diseases to humans or other animals. Their pincers are commonly believed to be dangerous, but in reality even the curved pincers of males cause little harm to humans. It is a common urban legend that earwigs crawl into the human ear and lay eggs in the brain. Finding earwigs in the human ear is rare.

Earwigs are known to eat fiberous materials, including textile materials. While earwigs do not carry any diseases like cockroaches, they can be serious threats to your garments that are wool and alike.

Earwigs seek out cool, dark and damp places. During a hot, dry, sunny day, your airconditioned house may seem inviting to them.

Sure they can. I often see one on the floor or in the shower.
