The Many Uses of Foam Earplugs

Potentially THE most comfortable earplugs, foam earplugs are highly versatile and are an important addition to your home safety kit or workplace safety standard closet. Beyond protecting your hearing, foam earplugs just seem to make life a bit more comfortable.

I can’t think of a place where comfort is more imperative than in the bedroom. And, sleep is SOOO important to your health. Obviously, sleep deprivation can cause fatigue, sluggishness, weakness and fuzzy thinking, but in addition, it has long-term affects such as premature aging! Yikes! Sleeping earplugs can block those annoying nighttime noises whether that’s a partner snoring or grinding their teeth or the neighbour’s yappy poodle they forgot to let in for the night.

You wouldn’t believe the noise level of some of the common things in a home. Lawn mowers, leaf blowers, and even some cheap, older dishwashers can have dangerous noise levels. The winner? Children’s toys, some of which have a decibel level as high as a jet taking off! Protect your ears (and sanity) with foam earplugs and your tot’s ears by turning down the volume or using toddler earmuffs.

Foam earplugs are highly adaptable to most ear canals, but for women and children, there are specialty sizes that may fit better than standard foam earplugs. Pretty pink women’s earplugs and soft, comfy junior foam earplugs will form fit to smaller ear canals making them more comfortable and effective.

For ultimate protection, industrial workers and other folks who are exposed to really loud noises, Moldex Spark Plug earplugs offer very high protection levels. Moldex Mellows earplugs are great for noisy environments where communication is necessary. They block the dangerous levels while still allowing for ambient noise and conversation.

Available in many different quantities, foam earplugs are fantastic for home or work. The new earplug dispensers available make compliance a snap and lower waste costs as one pair is dispensed directly into the employee’s hand. Speaking of compliance, industrial foam earplugs are really brightly coloured making them highly visible!

I keep a pair of earplugs with me at all times, and I always carry extra for long flights and vacations. It’s nice to have them with if one of my kiddos has trouble sleeping in the “strange” environment of a hotel. Personally, I sleep like a baby knowing someone else will be cleaning up the next day! Gotta’ love maid service!

Cheers!
