I then remembered my GBGV who had lesser issues, but having gone into the sea and got thoroughly wet, emerged with brilliantly clear clean ears. Salt water! Worth a try. I looked it up on the internet and came across several articles including this remedy. A teaspoon of non idodised salt in a cup of water. I put a drop of this in his ears and bathed the gunk from the outside of his ear and the earflap. it takes seconds, doesn't traumatise him and it works. It seems that after 15 mins the salt breaks down the wax allowing it to make its way out of the ear. It certainly cleans the outside of the ear in seconds.

The 1.87% Ivermectin gel (or paste), which is the same strength as the human version which is a pill. I followed the (per weight) directions on the back. Take 4 bar's worth = 125lbs. (by your weight) once a day for 3 days. Mild apple flavor taste. Washed it down with water. Many farm and feed stores offer it like TSC “Tractor Supply Company” here in the USA.
Everyone I have treated with Ivermectin has been with the horse paste. It easy to acquire, no questions asked, OTC.
Note: I’ve been hearing rumors about third party seller are selling some Horse Paste sold on Amazon being COUNTERFEITS. Probable made in China. The cap and syringe are the wrong colors and shape. Durvey the manufacture of ivermecin horse paste is aware of this problem and has informed Amazon

Trying to give a litre of water to a pet is difficult! Sipping a litre throughout the day and being consistent for a human is difficult. So I figured... greater concentration in the litre bottle combined with less frequent but greater 'sips' might work.
Starting with Walter Last's 1 teaspoon Borax in a litre of (distilled) water, of which we know that 1 teaspoon gives 3 mg Boron.
Therefore 18 teaspoons would give you 56mg Boron.
Divide this 18 teaspoons into 6 teaspoons 3 times a day. (Giving 18.66mg Boron per dose) (Also the litre doesn't have to be made up every day)
This would be manageable to give to a dog or for a female human (double the dose for a male). (4 or 5 days a week?)
Can anyone see a problem with this, please? Or has anyone tried this way? I understand it's horses for courses (pardon the pun) but topical application with DMSO is difficult on a very hairy dog!

People speak of adding 'a pinch' of borax to their pet's food and the dosage from Ted is 1/8 or 1/4 teaspoon added to a litre of water. Given that a dog or cat might drink a bowl full of water or half or whatever, is it OK for them to drink the whole (or half) daily dose in one sitting? (This is very different to a human sipping throughout the day or taking 3mg twice a day)

When I had dogs with allergies to flea/tick saliva, they were absolutely miserable during hot weather! Constant scratching & biting was the ticket, all day & much of the night, 24/7!
I tried vinegar sprayed on their coats (they hated it, probably because I didn't know to dilute it with water 50/50), and it worked to keep the fleas away / from biting, as they had no problems for 11-12 hours after each spraying!
After awhile I wondered if Aloe vera gel would do the same thing, and I had extra such plants growing in my yard ... so, I opened a fresh leaf & rubbed that 'goo' all over their fur ... and it also kept the parasites from biting them ... whether by repelling them or making it so they could not recognize by scent that the dogs were available to snack on, IDK which, or maybe something else was at play. HOwever it did so, it DID work ... WITHOUT ... ANY ... added preservatives ... at all!!!
