Read you can clean earwax with 1 part alcohol and 1 part vinegar? safe?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ear wax: Its safe as long as you don't have an ear infection. I was once tought a similar formula by an ENT friend of mine. He said mix equal parts of hydrogen peroxide, white vinegar, and rubbing alcohol together right before using. Place 3-5 drops in each ear a couple of times per week and you won't have ear wax problems. Hope this helps.
