 doesn't irritate May 09, 2011
By Mr. William G. Knoll
I have been using this product on my female lab for many years. She has a problem with ear infections so we have to clean her ears every other day. I used a product given to me by my vet and it irritated her ears and made them all red. I tried other products, and they also irritated her ears. This one does not cause any problems whatsoever.
 Didn't do the job Nov 15, 2011

After trying vinegar, oils, and Excel Ear solution, nothing worked. I used vinegar and oil everyday for about a month (my poor cats smelled like a salad the whole time) there was no difference.
Next I used Excel for about 2 months, it helped a little but I had to stop using it because my cats hated it! They were in pain every time I applied it. I think it burned them. My one kitty's pink ears became bright red for 2 days every time I used Excel. It wasn't worth it to me to put them through extra pain when very little was being accomplished.
Finally I decided to try boric acid. For those who are alarmed, I'd just like to tell you to do your own research on Boric acid. Yes, it's used as an insecticide but it is virtually harmless to mammals. It's about as harmful as salt. Also, I learned that boric acid is commonly used for medicinal purposes (wiki it!).
I mixed a cup of water to about 1 teaspoon of boric acid, shook it up really well and used a cotton ball to apply it. I kept it in a lidded plastic container so I wouldnt have to keep making it over again. For the first week I applied the solution every other day. For the second week i applied it every 2-3 days. By week 3 there is barely any signs of the trademark "coffee grounds" specks but i will continue to apply it 1-2 times a week for another month.
