This ancient reusable ear cleaning tool from F.E.T.E. (From Earth, to Earth) is made of bamboo and is completely biodegradable, compostable and sustainable. It is a brilliant and practical instrument used by the people of China and Japan for generations. Use once or twice a week to remove earwax visible at the entrance of the ear. Scrape out the earwax gently with the spoon-shaped end of the ear bud. Do not go into the inner ear! Earwax is actually an asset to your body because it protects the eardrum, so keep it clean only when it becomes unsightly. Once you’ve used the ear bud, wipe with a cloth or tissue. When you use conventional cotton buds, you tend to push the wax into your inner ear and this may cause problems and could damage the tender tissue of the eardrum. With this tool you can clean away unsightly build up of wax on the outer part of the year and leave the inner ear. Colour may differ from that shown.
