I haven't tried this, but...


EAR MITES
"I use a mix of apple cider vinegar in olive oil. First, clean the ear with a Q-tip, removing the brown waxy build-up. Then, with a dropper, drop 6 or 7 drops in each ears, holding the ear flap closed for a few minutes after each treatment to keep bunny from shaking the oil all over you. A few tablespoons of apple cider vinegar in the water bottle is also supposed to act as a repellant and general tonic. Handy stuff...a basic for any bunny medicine cabinet! Dawn

I'm not sure about the pet store medicine, but recently my vet gave me some Apex ear drops that worked really well. I used them for 7 days.. waited 7 days, then treated again for 7 days. The mite were cleared up in a few days and the extended treatment was just to make sure no eggs hatched.
