THE PROBLEM
You already know you shouldn't.
It is printed on the side of every cotton swab box in the country. Do not insert into the ear canal. And every morning, several million people read it and do it anyway, because there is nothing else that gets the itch.
A cotton swab is a blunt, absorbent head on a stick. It takes a little wax off the outside and drives the rest inward, packing it tighter against the drum with every pass. The relief lasts an hour. The wax is still there. It is just further in than it was yesterday.
The swab was never going to work. It only pushes.

SIDE BY SIDE
One absorbs. One grips.
On the left, a cotton swab. Loose fibre wound onto a stick, built to soak things up. Put it in an ear and it takes a little wax off the outside and pushes the rest further in.
On the right, Earva. One smooth silicone tip, slightly tacky, with nothing for wax to hide in. Wax sticks to the surface and comes away when you pull back.
Same thirty seconds at the mirror. Opposite direction.
HOW TO USE IT
Thirty seconds.
Touch the tip to the outer ear and turn it gently once. Lift away, and the wax comes with it. Rinse under warm water, let it dry, and the tack returns.
Same drawer, same routine. The only thing that changes is which way the wax goes.
Outer ear only. Never push into the ear canal, with this or with anything else.
VALUE
One box, not one use.
A pack of cotton swabs is cheap because you throw every one of them away. You have bought them a hundred times and you will buy them a hundred more.
Every Earva stick washes and goes back in the box. Sixty sticks, reused, is months of daily cleaning out of a single purchase.

The starter pack is two boxes, thirty sticks in each. Free shipping anywhere in the US, and it takes 7 to 10 working days to reach you because it ships direct from the people who make it.

Made to be picked up every day.
If any of this is you.
BEING STRAIGHT WITH YOU
What it is not.
This is a cleaning tool for the outer ear. It is not a medical device and it is not a treatment. If your ear is painful, bleeding, discharging, or has suddenly gone deaf, that is a doctor, not a stick.
Use it on the outer ear only. Do not push it into the canal. If you have a perforated eardrum or ear tubes, ask your doctor before using anything in your ears.
FAQ
Questions.
How is this different from a cotton swab?
How is this different from a cotton swab?
A cotton swab absorbs and pushes. Earva grips and lifts. The tip is tacky, so wax sticks to it and comes away when you pull back, instead of being driven deeper.
Does it hurt?
Does it hurt?
No. The tip is soft silicone with nothing sharp or rigid on it. It is designed for the outer ear and it is not meant to go deep.
How far in does it go?
How far in does it go?
Outer ear only. Never push it into the ear canal. If it does not come away easily on the outside, that is a job for a doctor.
How do I clean it?
How do I clean it?
Rinse the tip under warm water, give it a wipe, and let it air dry. The tack comes back once it is dry.
How many times can I reuse one stick?
How many times can I reuse one stick?
Around twenty washes per stick before the tack starts to fade. With sixty in your pack, box, that is a long time between orders.
Can I use it with hearing aids or earbuds?
Can I use it with hearing aids or earbuds?
Yes. Keeping the outer ear clear is exactly what the tacky tip is good at.
Can kids use it?
Can kids use it?
Only with an adult doing it, and only on the outer ear. Children's ear canals are much smaller. If you are unsure, ask your doctor.
