Keeping Your Pets Ears Clean

With ear infections being one of the most common canine and feline issues, ear hygiene is vital to their health and wellbeing. Pet ear infections are usually caused by bacteria, yeast, allergies or a hormone imbalance but can also be a result of excessive hair around the ear canal or a build up of dirt and wax. To help keep your pet’s ears healthy and fully functioning, it’s important to keep them clean and clear at all times. Using a natural ear cleaner is a great way to manage wax build up, dislodge debris and other unwanted dirt that might be lingering.

Key Ingredients

Tea Tree Oil

This well known essential oil has a variety of uses, but did you know it could be great for your pet’s ears? Not only can it act as a natural cleanser, it is also said to have properties that can manage unwanted debris.

Lavender

More than just a pretty purple flower, Lavender is very beneficial for your pet. The most common uses of lavender for pets are to naturally soothe itching and irritation that could be due to wax build up and debris. It also has a nice fragrance to it to keep your furry friend smelling fresh.

Aloe Vera

You may have heard that Aloe Vera is great for the skin when it comes to burns and dryness. In a similar manner, it can also be ideal for your pet’s ears as it can help to naturally soothe any irritation, redness and itchy skin caused by debris, dirt or scratching.

Directions

To use, point the tip of the spout into your pets ear and carefully squeeze the bottle to release enough drops to partially fill the ear canal. Gently massage the base of the ear canal to help loosen wax then remove any liquid, excess wax and dirt with a cotton ball or tissue. Repeat use as needed, either on a regular basis to keep the ears clean or when they start to become blocked.
