BioEars is the first antimicrobial earplugs that help prevent swimmer’s ear and earplug contamination. When ordinary soft silicone earplugs are handled they may become contaminated before placing in the ears. BioEars helps to reduce this contamination. Unlike other soft silicone earplugs on the market, BioEars is the first to contain an antimicrobial agent, which fights the growth of microbes such as bacteria.
