Dear poop collectors, have your dogs ever encountered such a situation? The dog keeps shaking its head and scratching. This is because the dog has ear mites. So what should you do if you know that the dog is infected with ear mites? How do you treat ear mites on your dog yourself? Let me tell you how to treat ear mites on your dog.
1. Clean the ears
First use a wet wipe to clean the outer auricle of your pet dog. If your pet dog’s ears have hard scabs, you can soften them with vegetable oil and then clean them. If there are corners that cannot be dealt with, you can use a pointed cotton swab to clean it, but it is best not to extend the cotton swab into the dog's ear canal to avoid damaging the dog's eardrum.
Afterwards, put a few drops of Wangxiang ear drops into the dog's ear canal, while covering the pet dog's ears and fixing the head. Don't let her shake it off, wait a minute before letting go, allowing the liquid to fully dissolve the oil and dirt in the inner ear. When your pet dog shakes the dirt out of its ears, just clean it with a tissue. Pay attention to cleaning 1-2 times a day until the pet dog fully recovers.
2. Pay attention to isolation
Ear mites in pet dogs can be spread among pets. Therefore, scavengers should isolate sick dogs in a timely manner to avoid the spread of ear mites. After that, you should do a good job of indoor hygiene. After mopping the floor with disinfectant, open windows for ventilation to keep the room dry and hygienic. All items used by pet dogs must be washed with disinfectant before being used for pet dogs.
3. Daily management
In the follow-up, you should pay attention to regularly checking the pet dog's ears to help the pet dog take good care. Also pay attention to keeping the ear canal dry. Put cotton balls in the pet dog's ears before bathing and take them out after washing to prevent water from entering the ear canal. When going out to play, be careful not to let your dog get into the grass or pull up the dirt. There may be many insect eggs in the grass, and the sand is equivalent to a medium for insect eggs and bacteria.
