Ear cleaning

Please dont do anything to their ears. Your piggies will be able to keep themselves clean
Agree with all of the above.
If you notice a problem with their ears please take then to a vet.
Even my older piggies (6+ years) have never needed their ears cleaned.

Most piggies do not need an ear clean in the first place. If you notice a bad build up of wax or any discomfort in the ears, please see a vet rather than do home DIY as you can easily do more harm than good.
Recommendations have changed on this aspect from old school practice.

Junior Guinea Pig
Ok, thanks! I don't see much in their ears.
Please do not attempt to do anything with your guinea pigs’ ears. If there is any sort of issue, leave it to a vet.
I appreciate that you’ve got new piggies and have many questions about their care - and that at first it can seem overwhelming, but we have a very comprehensive set of guides that will help you with the basics. Check out the tab marked Guinea Pig Info. And there you will find many guides. I’m giving you a link to the beginners’ starter bundle of guides. Please do have a good read of them, as they have so much helpful information in there. Helpful Info Collections for Wannabes & Owners
