how does earmites effect a dog???

Answer 1

Earmites will cause damage to the inner parts of the ear, leading to nasty infections and even hearing loss.

Here...

"Puppies and kittens with ear mites will scratch around their ears and/or shake their heads. The amount of scratching and shaking depends on the severity of the mite infestation. With more advanced infestation, the ear canals will bleed and either fresh or dried blood will appear inside the canal. Dried blood resembles coffee grounds. If you peer into your pet's ears and notice a build-up of a material that looks like 'coffee grounds,' then your pet probably has ear mites, although a bacterial and/or yeast infection is also a possibility.

Ear mites are very common, but still serious. Left untreated, they severely damage the ear canals and eardrum and can cause permanent hearing loss.

If mites spread out of the ears to other areas of the body, the animal may or may not scratch the area. "

Answer 2

If you find it early on just pull it out. It will not have much effect on the animal. If there are no signs of anything, just the mite there, you're probably OK. Make sure you get the whole thing. A lot of people leave the hook in and that can get infected. An earmite is a parasite and if left in untreated can cause an infection which can get into the blood stream and make the dog/cat very sick. It could eventually kill them but it's easy to treat with antibiotics. I recommend adding a little tea tree and citronella oil to your dogs earwash and wipe the ears with this about once a week to keep the mites away.
