Cleaning Ears?

[Goldie]

What do you use to clean the brown waxy type of substance that occurs in guinea pigs ears?

When bathing my piggies I never let water near their ears, hence their ears can get dirty.

I use a cotton bud but obviously only the outer bits inside the ear flap, never right inside.
Is there anything I could use as just warm water on the cotton bud doesn't get everything off as it is greasy also.

Any suggestions, please?

I've not had to use anything as yet but guinea lynx suggest mineral oil.

A bi of olive oil on the cotton bud works a treat for me!

I agree with Laure, that's what I used.
