Can dog ear mites be transmitted to humans? Dog ear mites can be transmitted to humans, but this transmission is usually caused by squeezing or wiping the ears, a disease called "dog ear mite contact disease," which is contagious. Fortunately, it is not a serious disease; especially when diagnosed promptly, most cases can be effectively diagnosed and treated with over-the-counter medications.
People who have been in contact with dogs infected with ear mites for a long time may also be infected with ear mites and develop symptoms such as skin itching and rash. Therefore, if your dog gets ear mites, you need to treat them promptly and maintain good hygiene at home.
Dog ear mites should be treated as soon as possible. The owner can let the dog lie on his body, then open its ears and put them into the ear canal to remove ear mites. After instilling the drops, gently rub around the ear canal with your hands for more than ten seconds to allow the ear drops to flow evenly into the depths of the ear canal and fully kill the mites. This method should be adhered to once a day until the dog recovers.
If you find that your dog has ear mites, you must deal with them promptly, especially if there are children or babies at home.
