Its function is exactly what it sounds like: Preventing wax from getting into the hearing aid mechanism and clogging it up. Eventually, these wax guards will get too clogged to clean with a brush, at which point they should be replaced. Depending on your usage and the volume of earwax you have, that could mean once a month.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">If your hearing aid has a wax guard, it probably comes with a kit of replacement guards, invariably contained within a small plastic case of eight or so. Flip open the case and remove one of the plastic tools from the sleeve very delicately. The replacement guard is on the other side of the tool, and it is easy to accidentally dislodge when you take the tool out of the case.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">With the eartip removed from the hearing aid, insert the bare (black) side of the tool directly into the wax guard, then remove it. This will pull the old wax guard out of the hearing aid completely.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">Now flip the tool around to the other side, which will have a white tip. This is your new, clean wax guard, ready for use. Carefully insert the white tip into the hole created by removing the old wax guard, then remove the tool again. It will leave the new wax guard snugly in place. Discard the used tool, replace the eartips, and you\u2019re ready to go.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"paywall\">4.

Solution: Replace them with fresh ones. Your hearing aids probably came with additional eartips in your preferred size, but when you run out, you can purchase more directly from the manufacturer (along with additional wax guard tools, if needed). Third-party eartips are available for many model hearing aids, but quality will vary considerably.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">When finished, give everything another quick wipe-down with your microfiber cloth. And remember to always keep your hearing aids stored in their case (never a pocket) when not in use.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"paywall\"\/>\n<p class=\"paywall\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/v2\/offers\/wir_generic_ctrl?source=Site_0_HCL_WIR_EDIT_HARDCODED_0_COMMERCE_AFFILIATE_ZZ\"><em>Power up with unlimited access to<\/em> WIRED<\/a><em>.<\/em><\/strong> <em>Get best-in-class reporting that&#8217;s too important to ignore for just <del>$2.50<\/del> $1 per month for 1 year.
