Q tips are wide as fuck to prevent people from injuring themselves easily i think.
Really what you need is something thinner that has hook like properties and there are kits with those.
Still gotta be really careful with that ofcourse. Make sure no people are around to jump scare you and causing you to accidentally ram that thing into your eardrums.
At some point i just bent a piece of wire into a loop to use that. (toothpick for scale) Thats not stainless steel tho so its gonna corrode.
But going to a professional once a year or so is probably not a bad idea either.
I unfold paperclips and use the smaller end. One caveat that make me realize it’s not the best idea: the point I unfolded can break. I’ve never lost one in my ear, but I could imagine it happening.

You people shouldn’t be trusted with your health.
I just let a goat graze in my ear until it’s not hungry anymore

For scale

You jam that into your ear canal in lieu of a q-tip
