Comparison of Top Rated Pet Ear Mite Remedies

Checking your pet for ear mites is the first step to successful diagnosis and treatment. 

Things to look for when checking your pet for ear mites would be grey or black spots in the ear, otherwise known as exudates (blood, puss, etc.). Signs of ear mite infestation include noticible scratching of the ears, repeated shaking of the head (as if they’re trying to shake the mites out of the ear), as well as fever and sometimes a lethargic attitude (but not always). 

The most “telltale” symptoms of an ear mite infestation are the pet's shaking of the head and the buildup of exudates in the ear.
