How to Block Sound With Ear Plugs
- 1). Clean your hands with an antibacterial soap. Never touch your ears with dirty hands.
- 2). Grasp the ear plug between your thumb and forefinger. Squeeze the ear plug until the foam cylinder is compressed. Roll it between your two fingers to make the plug as small as possible.
- 3). Use your opposite hand to pull up and slightly back on your outer ear. With the other hand, insert the ear plug into the ear. Push the ear plug into the ear for two seconds. This will give the ear plug time to expand and fill up the ear hole.
- 4). Readjust or remove the ear plugs by twisting them slightly. Slowly pull the plugs from your ears.
