Pet Tips Ear Mites If your pet seems to constantly shake its head or scratch its ears, the problem could be ear mites. Here is a home ear mite treatment that definitely helps but most times, the mites return. Place a small amount of mineral oil down the ear everyday for three weeks – this mineral oil suffocates the mites. The problem – lots of mites live on the ear flap or hair around the ear. So, in about two or three weeks the scratching and head shaking comes back. Whether you use mineral oil or a treatment from you vet, to get rid of these ear mites once and for all you will have to treat all animals in the house.
