Ear mites are tiny infectious organisms resembling microscopic ticks. The mite can just barely be seen as a small white dot with the naked eye, but it usually must be detected by examination of a sample of ear wax under a microscope. Infection usually produces a characteristic dry black ear discharge commonly said to resemble coffee grounds. Because of the classical appearance of this discharge, infection is often diagnosed based on the presence of such discharge though without visual confirmation of the mite under the microscope, it is possible to be led astray. The discharge is composed of ear wax, blood, inflammatory biochemicals, and ear mites themselves.

Surprisingly enough fleas aren't a big problem in Kuwait for much of the year. A number of excellent products are now available to control these most irritating of unwelcome visitors. Some drugs will also contribute to the control of other ectoparasites (e.g. ticks, mites) like Frontline and Protektor and some help control endoparasites (e.g. roundworms) like Stronghold and Revolution. Looking at the individual's life style, temperament and risk level helps us decide on which product best suits that pet. We have a range of possible products including: sprays, drops onto the skin, injections, liquids and tablets. Please call in or book an appointment to discuss which method would best suit you and your pet.
