Fill the ear canal with cow yogurt/curd; the scutigera will emerge, partially digested. If the scutigera has entered the stomach, consume one to two sheng of high-quality cow yogurt on an empty stomach; it will transform into yellow fluid and be excreted. If not fully expelled, repeat the dose. This method is extremely effective; this formula was recently acquired.
Another formula: Take one small chicken, remove feathers and feet, fry in oil until golden, pierce with chopsticks to create holes, and use as a pillow.
Yet another formula: Take earthworms, place them inside green onion stalks until they dissolve into water, then drip this liquid into the ear; the scutigera will also dissolve into water.
