Keep Your Ears Healthy – Clean Your Earplugs and Earbuds Have you ever taken out your headphones and they are completely covered in earwax? Have you put them back in your ear a day later, after they were on the floor of your bedroom, with that same dried earwax sitting on it? We all do it. We use our headphones everyday without giving a second thought to where they have been or what bacteria might be on them. The same is true for earplugs made from silicone and polymer, that we often use for flying, swimming, or even sleeping.

Live music concerts are great. We all know that. What’s not that great, however, is the pain in the ears most of us experience once we leave the gig – do you remember the familiar sound of ‘ringing’ in your ears? Yes, it tends to ring for a few hours and then usually everything gets back to normal.

Rather than attempting to block out the sound, or absorb it, high fidelity earplugs filter the sound and lower the volume without affecting the quality. I'm happy to announce that I am giving away 8 free pairs o...
