| I think I saw that mentioned in another post. A flea comb should work. Gracie won't let me near her eyes with anything but a wash cloth. So I just use a warm wet wash cloth and it comes out fairly easily.

| flea combs work. I use one of those little wooden shoe polish brushes and brush it out of their hair when I bathe them. |

| I used a baby wipe today to get Sugar's eye boogers. I wasn't sure if that was okay, but I made sure not to get it into her eyes. It seemed to work really well. Can anyone let me know if this isn't a good idea. Thanks!

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | I don't recommend using a scissors anywhere near their eyes, mostly bc they can get hurt. But also, when you trim their surrounding eye hair short and "pokey" - it can often poke into their eye and make even more eye gunk and irritation. Use warm water, a cloth and/or a finger toothbrush (this is what I use).

| On Diesel we are using these extra gentle pet wipes from Perkin to get the eye crust. They are good to use on his face, ear, eyes and body |

No Longer a Member | I don't use a brush or comb; I use these pads I got from Petsmart. Tear Clear Stain remover pads. They take out the eye boogers really easy. I just wipe down from below her eye down her snout. It dissolves them really easily. I use it before putting her in the bath. |

| We use a tiny small handled flea comb and then use eye wipes from Petsmart. My hubby is always making sure that they are "booger free".

| I just bought Eye Envy. It works to keep the buggers off, but the red stain is still there. It says to use it for a while and it will remove the stains too. Maybe!

| eye envy I just bought the eye envy too. I used it for the first time last night. It said it may take a few times before the stains come out. I hope it works. Let me know how it works for you.
