We have a stray cat that has scratched his ears raw. Would this help if it is ear mites that has caused the problem?

This goes inside the ear for ear infection type symptoms. So if it is on the outside of the ear I believe there is a zymox CREAM for skin you can use.

The most common ear mite (as well as mange mite) treatments currently use the antiparasitics ivermectin and selamectin, usually as topical preparations. Ivermectin is available as a direct water-based liquid that is squeezed into the ear canal and massaged at the base of the ear to distribute the medication. Selamectin is available as a once-a-month preparation that can be applied to the animal's skin, which prevents mite infestation over that time. Hope this helps

It worked on my dogs ear also. So I say it might be worth a try or at less get some for after the ear mites are gone to help the ear to become healthy again.

This is not for mites. For fungus in the enter ear look up ear mites. You need something to kill them.like SENTRY® Hot Spot Skin Remedy. good luck

I didn't know dust mites bite. This product works well to prevent bugs from biting me. I don't know if it stops itching after being bit but i would think probably not.

I am not sure if this particular Zymox product treats ear mites. Check out Zymox Otic.

I have not tried it with my cats because they don't scratch the door. However, I do think it is worth a try, the cost is so low and the benefits are great if it does work.

This is to help the humans that are allergic to their cat's dander.....if your cat is allergic to dust mites..you may need a different approach to the household dust mite issue to help your cat...hope this helps & good-luck!!

Cats cannot hear it, but I have wondered about their delicate sensitive nerves though. I don't know if I am imagining it or not, but they do seem to be obsessively cleaning. I use Revolution so they don't have fleas. I need further study.

I don't think so, however, I would ask your local Vet. He/she could tell you how sensitive their eardrums are.

My cat has not, but if they really wanted out, possibly. My 1st choice would be not unless it was against something hard to support where they scratched.

I would rule out an earmite infestation first- my cat had blackish earwax that was like coffee grounds on the q-tip and it turned out to be mites.

Yes, it could possibly help, if your cats respond the way my cats have. When they get too rambunctious with one another I spray some Nature's Miracle on a cloth (or an old sock) and make sure each of the smells it. Then I lay the cloth in the vicinity they are in. If I keep a cloth (refreshing it with the spray a few times a day) in the general are during the day it helps immensely. But you have to keep it up, or they will go back to their old habits. Don't expect one spray per day to do the trick. It has made my life so much easier, and has calmed my cats down.

No, I don't believe so, Bryan. I have always used it for ear infections in my dogs. It works great! But I think there are other meds that cater to ear mites.

Cat's ears are very, very different from people. My first instinct is this would be a very bad idea. Please, for the sake of your cat, do serious research before considering it.

Mange is caused by mites that burrow under the skin. When they surface to reproduce they need to come into contact with the DE, which will pierce their exoskeleton and cause them to dehydrate. I know this because I used DE to get rid of scabies, which is essentially mange on humans. Just be prepared for some eye irritation as DE is scratchy! . Not sure if the mite follows the same life cycle in dogs as in humans; if so you'll need to reapply the stuff after a week or two when the eggs that were laid under the skin hatch and the itching starts up again in force.

I'm pretty sure it can help with that, mine is outdoors, my neighbor's cat kept coming to my backyard and peeing there, it has really worked to stop that. I use a higher frequency than 1 and still can't hear it. :)

Don't have cats so I'm not sure... Try Google or your vet .. sorry I couldn't help with that one

I don't think so. Our vet recommended this because it makes the food easier to digest, and that helped our dog's itchy skin.
