They warn you on the box not to insert these things in your ear canal, but it sure beats what the inventor's wife used prior to his creation. Q-Tips were invented in the 1920's by a Polish-born American named Leo Gerstenzang. It seems that Leo's lovely and beautiful wife had rigged up a different device to clean their baby's ears at bathtime - a toothpick stuck into a piece of cotton.
Now, all he needed was a name. He chose Baby Gays as the name of the first cotton swab. Although this name would be considered quite unusual for today's standards, the baby gay was a huge hit! By 1926 he added Q-Tips in front of the old Baby Gays title to create the first Q-Tip Baby Gays. The Q stood for quality.
