What to use to clean guinea pigs ears?

[LunaGirl1]

My boys are coming up to around a year and a half and I'm cleaning their ears myself for the first time - they used to get their ears cleaned at their breeders house as my family are friends of theirs. Now it's been a few months and I want to be able to clean them myself. I'm unsure whether I should buy a ear cleaning thing off amazon or if there's a different thing I can use?

Thanks a lot!

You should not be needing to clean their ears at all.
If there is an issue with the inside of their ears, then it’s best to see a vet

Please don’t clean their ears yourself. As already mentioned, if there’s anything wrong with their ears, you should see a vet. Their ears shouldn’t need cleaning

They shouldn’t need their ears cleaning. If they do, then a vet needs to check the ears over.
