They do not work for horrible snoring at all no blockage of noise !!
I was under the impression that you have improved these plugs but nothing has improved as far as I can tell.
Response from Mighty Plugs: The World's Finest EarplugsSep 21, 2014
Dear Bob:
Your success is important to us! Please read below and follow the simple instructions completely.
I've been wearing our ear plug to reduce or eliminate the snoring from my bed partner for the past 12 years. They always did and presently do, a great job; but as you may know, they have to be inserted firmly enough to "SEAL" the ear opening.
We have been providing and still are providing what is regarded "the world over" as the highest & best blocking ear plug in the world.
Our latest ear plug was made with a higher density cotton fiber that had increased it's ability to block out even more then before.
Bob, adult males are advised to use the (whole) ear plug, and after you've kneaded it to make it soft and moldable, push it slightly firmly IN and AGAINST your ear opening (until you feel it seal)! You WILL OBSERVE THE SILENCE.
Most sincerely

Not impressed
I have been using what I thought was the world's best earplugs for over a year. Not real happy with them. I saw this ad and it stated that they were the world's best, so I decided to order them and give them a try. They are the same ones that I have been using. So I was very disappointed to find out they were not different. So I'm back to square one to find the world's best to keep out my husbands snoring.

Dear Tianda:
For many people, inserting ear plugs are a new experience. We invite our customers to contact us (immediately) after receiving their order, in case they have questions or are dissatisfied in any way. We can then explain to them how to (prepare) and (insert) this magnificent ear plug just as the people who kindly send us the positive testimonials.
Tianda, if our Beeswax ear plug is not (prepared) sufficiently just prior to insertion, and if it is not (inserted) correctly, one will not experience the silence that this ear plug will deliver.
I too wear this exact ear plug every night to block out my husband's snoring. It works wonderfully, and it is the HIGHEST BLOCKING (most sound suppressing) ear plug in existence; but to experience the superior performance, you must follow (exactly), the preparation and insertion directions below, and you will then see why all the testimonials on our website page are true and accurate.
Tianda, please follow (exactly) these instructions below!
Please Note! Many adults with smaller ear canals pinch off at least (a third), and insert a smaller ear plug that fits their ear canal better, is more comfortable, seals easier and blocks out better. This can make a big difference, yet you only make it smaller if it is too large and uncomfortable.
1. Just as you are about to insert, take ONE ear plug and {work it or knead it} thoroughly between your fingers or hands for at least 15 seconds to make it soft, moldable and to disburse the Pure Lanolin throughout the ear plug. Pure Lanolin makes the ear plug slightly “tacky” so that it stays securely in the ear canal and seals it. When the ear plug is soft and moldable and ready to insert, it doesn't matter what shape it is; round, flat , long or narrow; just follow the next step. If you are going to pinch off to make a smaller ear plug, then now is the time.
2. Using the tip of your index finger, push FIRMLY & FLATTEN the ear plug IN and AGAINST your ear canal (until you feel a GOOD SEAL!)
IMPORTANT: If it doesn't seal immediately, then hold your finger pressed against the ear plug (with slight pressure) for a few more seconds and it will seal well.
3. Now take the other ear plug, prepare it the same way & insert it into the other ear. With both ear plugs inserted correctly & sealing the ear canals; now listen; you’ll hear very little or possibly no sound. It even gets better each time you wear them.
Feel free to call us at the office and we will be happy to walk you through inserting them. 1-800-226-1884

Disasterous, threw them all away.
Think its actually play dough and they do not work too good either, one gets greasy in the ear and on the fingers. Not my cup of tea!
Response from Mighty Plugs: The World's Finest EarplugsSep 12, 2014
Dear Gunnar:
This wonderful ear plug is made mainly from Beeswax, and the item you call greasy is pure Lanolin. I wish we had sent you the directions for preparing the ear plug in Norwegian, but unfortunately we only have it in English and German at this time. With so many customers from all over the world, the company is having in the very near future, printing the instruction card in many many more languages.
Gunnar, please don't give up this fine ear plug. Just follow the simple instructions below and you will be grateful for my help.
1. Just prior to insertion (work or knead) ONE ear plug between your fingers or hands for 15 seconds to make it soft, moldable and to make it a bit 'tacky' by disbursing the pure Lanolin throughout the ear plug. The greasy feeling will be greatly diminished because you will have disbursed the Lanolin throughout the earplug.The ear plug needs some tackiness to be effect and stay securely in the ear canal and BLOCK OUT.
2. Then using the tip of your index finger (push and flatten) the ear plug ( a bit firmly) in and against your ear opening (UNTIL YOU FEEL THE EAR PLUG SEAL.)If it doesn't seal immediately, just keep your finger pressed against the ear plug for a few more seconds and it will seal well.
3. Now prepare and insert the other ear plug the same way, and Listen to the SILENCE.
Gunnar, if you prepare and insert the ear plugs this way, you will most likely be very surprised, and if so, please consider amending your review.
If you need more help, please contact our office and we will explain clearly how to insert this remarkably effective ear plug.

I didn't like using them.
It seems like they are just made of children's plasticine. They felt
gross and heavy in my ears and they also didn't block out the sounds
that much better than the old comfortable foam ear plugs. When I
took them out, they left little bits of plasticine behind in my ears and my
ears felt all greasy.
Response from Mighty Plugs: The World's Finest EarplugsSep 6, 2014
Dear Sara:
We don't know or have even heard of 'plasticine'.
Our all natural ear plug is made from Beeswax, Cotton & Lanolin. We provide along with each order, a small card that says "How to Insert" & "How to Remove", plus our website devotes a page to the same subjects. Secondly it is obvious that you need to pinch off some ear plug material, for the ear plug is obviously too large for your ear canal.
Sara, Just prior to inserting one must (work or knead) the ear plugs between their fingers or hands for 15 seconds, to make the ear plug soft, moldable and to disburse the pure lanolin throughout the ear plug.
If you would have prepared the ear plug and inserted it correctly, you would have had the Highest Blocking ear plug in the world doing what it does best; "Blocking Out".
Sara, this is too good an ear plug to give up. After kneading it for 15 seconds, pinch off about a third. Then push and flatten the ear plug in and against your ear opening (until you feel it seal). Then listen to the silence! Afterwards, please feel free to write again and amend your first impression.

Not What Expected...Crap
DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY! This product isnt worth it. I was totally disappointed with this product. It did not seem to reduce sound/noise whatsoever, useless material. It wasn't worth the effort to return the item, so I decided to just write it off as a bad purchase.
Response from Mighty Plugs: The World's Finest EarplugsAug 17, 2014
Dear customer:
We couldn't find any of our customers with the name "Kaka", yet that still doesn't take away the importance of your review and experience.
Kaka, our ear plug is made from Beeswax, and when after first kneading it between your fingers and hands for at least 15 seconds to make it soft and moldable, it is very very important that one inserts it (correctly).
With the tip of your index finger, you must push and flatten a bit firmly, IN and AGAINST your ear opening (UNTIL YOU FEEL THE EAR PLUG SEAL YOUR EAR.)
When you insert the ear plug like I described above, you will notice that it will block out ALL, IF NOT ALMOST ALL SOUND!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kaka, try again and insert our ear plug (correctly. You'll notice a huge improvement; and then afterwards if you feel the need; please amend your review. Your success is important to us, so if you need more help, please feel free to call or write our office. We all wear the same ear plug and, if need be, we can walk you through inserting it
