A couple of drops in each ear will identify an ear infection by a fizzing action. Applications both morning & night should clear any possible infection. If Hydrogen Peroxide is overdosed, any impacted wax may be softened with some warm olive oil or "Cerumol". As I am prone to these types of infections, I apply a couple of drops of Hydrogen Peroxide to each ear nightly. Does the trick!
