How are the wax traps used
2058130
They are used to prevent ear wax from blocking the vents in specific hearing aids. Ear wax is collected in the trap which is then discarded and replaced periodically.

Fortunately, illustrated instuctions are shown on the back of the white cover shown to the right side of the picture. But, to summarize, one tip of each stick is gray, and the other is white. Simply screw the gray end into the hole in the white tip of your hearing aid, (you may want/have to remove [and clean/replace] any rubber cushiony thingy on the end of earpiece to acheive this) and pull tip out. Then flip the stick over, thrust the new white tip into the earpiece, and unscrew the stick. Replace the thingy at the end, throw the stick away, and you are done...until the next time. ;-)

A wax trap is a tiny round cap that fits on the end of the speaker part of a hearing aide that goes into the ear. It keeps ear wax from gumming up the speaker and blocking sound coming through. The trap has a hole in its center so wax gums up the trap instead of the speaker. It is about the size of a pin head, round and about 1/16" long. Hope this is what you wanted.

They are small inserts that fit into the hearing aid's earpiece. They prevent your ear wax from entering the hearing aid. They need to be periodically replaced. The replacement wax traps you buy come with a tool to permit the removal of the old one and the insertion of the new one.

There's a thin plastic spindle with a new wax trap on one end and a point on the other end for removing the old trap from the hearing aid. After removing the old trap, insert the new trap and discard the old trap and spindle.

It is a sticky wax. If they land in it they would stick to it. If you use it according to the instructions I doubt they would be affected or is that effected?.

I used peanut butter. Just be sure to to put it on the trap before you set it!

They have some wires at the bottom, it is the only way to attach the burning wax

It SHOULD work perfectly fine. There is a suggested hydrogen peroxide solution that the instructions tell you to us. Use this solution and it should remove the wax just fine.

I reread the instructions 2-3 times, it says remove plastic rack before heating wax. then when wax is melted, prior to putting in your hand, you put in the plastic rack so you don't burn your hand with the burner that heats the rack.

No way...I only bought them after getting a recommendation for this specific product and I still see signs of vermin! Argh! I have done better with a variety of sticky traps. What ever you use, wear gloves and defer from leaving your scent on the device (glue trap or regular ole neck-snapping traps). DO NOT get this product and save your money.

Most custom in the ear hearing aids from Phonak use the Cerustop Wax Traps, which are the ones shown here. The less common one is called Smart guard, which if you look at the wax guard, looks like saran wrap or clear plastic. If you wax guard now is white in color and you use Phonak or Unitron hearing aids, then these are the correct onesHope this helps.Local Battery

Wax?? if you mean this bath oil. then soap and water. but I use this product to rid ants from my yard. insects hate this product, and it is safe around pets and children. my dog loves the oder, I use it in her bath water. SSS makes her fur shiny, and it repels fleas.

I used rubber gloves to make sure the traps did not have any odoers or interferance from my body smells or oils. So far these traps have been very productive, my insect problem has diminished. I plan to purchase more of this product.

If the wax is in a microwaveable cup rather than a block, the cup may have a thin metal strip on it to prevent theft. The metal strip is attached with adhesive and should pull of with ease.

They are wax trappers. If you remove the silicon dome (the part that goes into your ear), that exposes the end of the wire. The wax trapper should be in there. The product itself has one end with a protruding point; the other end has a new, white wax trap. The first end removes the old wax trap, then you reverse it and insert the new wax trap (the white part). You just put it in and it releases. I check mine fairly often: use a magnifying glass and check the trap that's been in awhile- if you cxannot see a grid-like pattern, sort of like a screen, then it probably needs to be changed.

They are wax and can be used anywhere. I would not leave them outdoors overnight or during inclimate weather. Also keep out of direct sunlight so they don't melt.

Katrina, There are two traps. You will remove the smaller from the larger and use separately. Jim

No traps-I have too many small animals that could potentially get hurt and since it repels mice they aren't around to get trapped.They work very well , I use no poisons on this farm so was glad when I found these. I use plenty if the space is large be sure you put out enough, I find the herbal smell is pleasant

You can use it with lose wax, but then again, it has to be hot for you to clean it. I just put the container in it, and it heats up. no need to do anything else.
