Catching earworms

In response to THIS COMMENT I simply wanted to say that the best treatment for an earworm is to use a juicy piece of bait to lure the earworm out.  This usually happens at night when you are sleeping, so the trick is to enlist the help of a close friend, jailmate, casual sexual acquaintance, or ideally someone who is all three at once, to catch the earworm when it pokes out its head and twist it around a short stick which can then be used to gently wind out the earworm over several days.  The best bait to use is a stinking piece of rotten meat such as Tubthumping by Chumbawumba.
