Although microscopic in size, ear mites are often a major problem for dogs and cats. They cause intense itching inside the ear, irritation and infection if not treated. Symptoms: Dogs with ear mites often scratch at their ears and shake their heads to one side or the other. All-natural Cooper’s Best Ear Mite Lotion is an insecticide-free preparation for conditions associated with ear mites. Fortified with a synergistic blend of essential oils and Lavender, Lemongrass and Pennyroral, it helps restore a healthy ear environment while providing needed relief. The addition of Aloe Vera helps soothe red, irritated ears. Directions for use: Clean ear thoroughly to remove built-up was and dirt. Gently dry ear with a cotton ball or soft cloth and apply a thin film of lotion. May be applied daily for 7 – 10 days. If condition persists or if irritations develops, discontinue use and consult a veterinarian.
