If I were going to put a rough estimate down, I'd say once every 2 weeks or once a month. But if you notice your pet scratching their ears a lot or shaking their head, it's probably a sign that something needs to be done sooner than later.</p> <p>-J </p> http://www.getridofthings.com/forums/topic/ear-mites#post-254 Thu, 12 Jun 2008 18:44:08 +0000 Machell265 254@http://www.getridofthings.com/forums/ <p>how often do you half to do this? </p> http://www.getridofthings.com/forums/topic/ear-mites#post-24 Sat, 17 Nov 2007 14:37:12 +0000 samoya22 24@http://www.getridofthings.com/forums/ <p>Enough to cover the entirety of the inside of your dog's ears. This can be done with you thumb. I would say three to four drops for a medium/large dog. Let the mineral oil sit for a while and loosen the debris/exudate, and then clean them out with a cotton ball.</p> <p>Medicated ear mite treatments aren't necessarily bad. In fact, they're good if you think your pet is suffering from a secondary infection caused by your pet scratching the irritated area. Infections are bad. Medicine is good. But if you're just trying to keep your pet's ears clean, I would go with mineral oil and cotton balls.</p> <p>Note: don't use Q-tips. The chances of you slipping and doing more damage to the ear are greater with a Q-tip. </p> http://www.getridofthings.com/forums/topic/ear-mites#post-19 Wed, 14 Nov 2007 17:12:41 +0000 Robbin 19@http://www.getridofthings.com/forums/ <p>How much mineral oil should be put in the ear<br /> of a medium size dog, to get rid of ear mites?</p> <p>Thanx</p> <p>Robbin </p>
