Knead the tampon several times and vigorously with clean, dry hands and form a homogeneous ball.
No elongated shape, as such a plug could slip into the ear canal.
Do not split the tampon.
It should be large enough to completely isolate the ear canal from the outside without entering the ear canal.
Do not use if the ear canal is larger than the ball.
For smaller ear canals, excess material is pressed into the outer ear.
Place the clean, dry ball in front of the opening of the ear canal and press gently until it sits.
If necessary, let the air in the ear canal escape by pulling the outer ear and gently pressing the ball again.
It is important that your hands and earplugs are dry, otherwise the earplug will not adhere and will not close the ear canal with the desired insulation.
Do not insert it into the ear canal, as this will make the plug difficult to remove.
After use, remove carefully and without sudden movements, so as not to damage the eardrum.
Loosen the earplugs with light pressure from the back of the outer ear and twist outwards with a fingertip on one part.
If you have long nails, be careful not to damage the cap with them.
Do not use any aids (e.g. cotton swabs or tweezers)!
As a result, the plug may become damaged or may be pushed too deep into the ear canal.
