Subject: Rubbing alcohol for ear cleaning

Question: Someone told me the prefect way to clean a ferret's ears
of wax
build up is to swab out the ear with rubbing alcohol. Is this true?
What
about the excess dripping into the ear canel, wouldn't that cause
damage to
the inner ear? I use hydrogen peroxide-but the bubbles really make
those
little fuzzies jumpy.
Becky-Just curious
