a handful of Mullein Flowers (dried)
*I get these from a lady that lives by me
3 cloves of finely minced garlic
Olive oil
place flowers and garlic in a glass bottle and cover completely with oil. allow to set in a sunny window for 4-5 days or if needed immediately, heat on low for 3-4 hours. Strain out flowers and garlic and keep bottle in refrig. When you want to use it again, warm it in hot water until it is body temperature. Use 4 drops for an adult and 2 for a child 2-3 times per day.
Warning: if there is fluid oozing out of the ear, do not use this oil.
I was given this by a friend and changed it a bit by increasing the garlic
