Excessive duck earwax?

sickening video but could be a possibility

My god...
When I removed the foreign object it did not resemble one of those botfly things though, at least compared to the images I looked up of them. Also it did not move, otherwise I would've definitely freaked out a little. Maybe it's a dead baby larva?

This morning I took some photos of her ear. It looks like there are still some leftovers in there; I don't really know if I should take it all out, since it could be natural for all I know. She's got what I assume is that same stuff on her other ear. I didn't poke too much in there since I don't want to hurt her. Should I just take her to the vet?

Thank you all for your insights, by the by

Do you still have that lump?
Would be good to dissect it further, first by slicing it in half lengthwise.

Unfortunately I no longer have it. The formation of whatever this is seems to be recurring though; I could try to do this next time I get the chance.

I think having a vet look at it would be good if you can. It sure isn’t normal.
