it's that empty void feeling that only dads have . . . the only way to fix it is to just buy every amazon deal regardless if it's a sd or not.

Walmart's Equate have a normal price of $2.28 per 500. How do these compare in quality? It takes quite a while to use 500 Q-tips.

Reviews and photos seem to indicate it's very similar in quality to the name brand

These Amazon Basics are compatible to Q-tips. They have very sturdy and beefy paper based shafts just like Q-tips and the same amount of cotton on the ends. I have used these when they were Solimo branded, and also again when they changed the name to Amazon Basics and they are identical. I have also used Q-tip brand too. Basically all identical imo.

I can vouch for this. I've used these on ears, nose, nails, even the #dadhole.

Sturdy yet gentle, with the beef to support.

I've switched to this, from a decade's use of Q-Tips. I don't feel any significant difference.

It's generally not a good idea to put a cotton swab in your dog's ears - they could shake their head and you could accidentally puncture their ear drum.

A better practice is to use cotton balls, twist it so that you can get it into the ear canal, and wipe out any debris left over after using an ear wash.
