Ear mites of dogs and cats

This is my first video. Turned out ok. Some interesting video taken with my digital camera through the microscope at work as well as a couple of stills taken the same way.

Demodectic mange and ear mites the same ??? Please answer me anybody??

[AmberNite23]

No, demodectic mites are NOT the same as ear mites. Completely different.

FYI: -i check my G.shepherd's ears routinely for nasty black'ish Mites, particularly if i see him scratching his ears. The easy CURE is to first take a clean soft/paper-towel and reach into their ears with one's finger as best possible, then simply squirt-in a dose of ordinary Rubbing-alcohol (70% Isopropyl) into both ears while holding the dog's head still so as to not get the alcohol in their eyes when they naturally shake their head. The alcohol readily exterminates eggs and the nasty Mites!

The mites seem pleased with your choice of music. They're really gettin' down.

ear mites use either Revolution once a month or you can use ivermectin either injectable or several drops  in each ear...you can get ivermectin at feed stores...

Interesting! One criticism: The music drowned out your narration a bit.

As from my vet manual: Mites are fairly host-specific but when in contact with the infested dog it too can become infested.

Hair clipping and body cleansing in benzoyl peroxide shampoo can be used. Whole- body amitraz dips applied every two weeks can be used. However there are two different types of Demodex mange so the treatment can vary. Best to take to a vet and get treatment for it there. There is also the chance of secondary bacterial infections.
