Does anyone know of a remedy for my dogs ear mites. Expensive vet
visits and treatments haven't helped.

Thanks, Keith

Dear Keith,  I have cured ear mites with an old remedy used by grandma (it
also treats ringworm).  You mix 2/3's mineral oil with 1/3 Iodine (the kind
for cuts).  Mix well and clean the ears with this twice a day.  The mineral
oil suffocates the mites (and yeast) and the iodine poisons them.  After 3
days do it once a day for about 3 days, then every other day etc. depending
on the response.  If the ears are very inflamed and smell really bad the
dog may need to see a vet for antibiotics.  however my dogs ears never
reached that stage.  Good luck to you!     Doglady = Carol

I've always used a mixture of vinegar and glycerin, and then dried
the ear with some weaker rubbing ***.  Seems to work on
the yeast infections, and I think I'll try it on mites too.
