Treating ear mites







Ear mites are tiny pest that live in your pets ear canal by the thousands. They are easly spread from pet to pet so when you treat one, be sure to treat them all.

Look into your pets ears. You may see a blackish brown deposit. If they look dirty, and your pet is scratching, it is a a good indication that they have ear mites..

BEFORE TREATING: CLEAN:

Clean the "dirt" out of the ear first. Put several drops of mineral, or baby oil into the ear canal with an eye dropper to soften the dirt.
Next mix equal parts of, slightly warmed, white vinegar and water. Gently flush out the ears, a rubber syringe is good for this. (The kind you use for infants)

Wipe the ear with some cotton balls, and dry.


TREATING

Apply over the counter medication to kill the mites. Follow the manufactures directions.
Be sure to do the follow up treatments as well to get eggs that hatched later.
Look for a treatment that contains Pyrethrins.


Remember it is important to treat each of your pets.
