8. Tea Tree Oil

Tea tree oil is known for its antibacterial and antifungal properties, but it can also irritate sensitive skin.

If used, it should always be diluted — for example, mixed with olive oil or warm water. A few drops can be placed in the ear, then allowed to drain out after a short time.

Because of the risk of irritation and limited evidence, it’s best to speak with a doctor before trying this method. Avoid use if you have ear tubes.
